Pros

-Projects are interesting and fast-paced. You will learn a lot working here. -High expectations for senior engineers, you will have lots of opportunities to push your career. -Friendly coworkers, team culture seems pretty good. My team is very accommodating for me who doesn't speak Chinese and changes the primarily used language to English for a lot of projects that I am involved in. -Lots of tools to get past the language barrier (Also see cons). -Good compensation -Good benefits -Great onboarding process and internal tools.

Cons

-Even if you work in a primarily English-speaking team, a lot of core documentations are written in Chinese. Even with pretty good translation tools, it can be daunting at first. -Need to have flexible work hours if your team works closely with teams based in China. Could have lots of meetings in the evenings. -Mountain View office is not well developed currently. -Uncertain IPO
