      Pros

      Nice people and perks.

      Cons

      Strangely passive aggressive - things are pleasant on the surface with an undercurrent of unexpected ruthlessness. Messy at times, but so are most workplaces.

      Pros

      Working with a bright, internationally diverse team (both corporate employees (1/3 of total headcount) and freelancers (2/3)) who are driven by a clear and inspiring company mission to change the way the world works and create professional opportunity for millions.

      Cons

      Eating our own dogfood (working with a partially distributed team) can be challenging. Lots of technical debt from legacy platforms, Elance and oDesk, that will take years to resolve.
