Pros

Company is highly visible, in large part because senior leadership goes out of their way to promote themselves personally. The overall vision and market opportunity is there, so for sure there is a possibility of a good outcome with respect to exit opportunities.

Cons

Management is really self centered. Perfect example, a lot of the "awards" they're constant going to fancy dinners to receive were actually bought and paid for via marketing dollars. They used to be really focused on a good "exit" but now I wonder with our valuation being the obvious result of a bubble if a lot of management is now on a promotion tour for their next gig. CEO is a lawyer and sometimes I wonder if that's why we have the weirdest legal team I've ever seen. Since the CEO is obsessive about twitter everyone on that team who wants to ingratiate themselves with him uses it obsessively. Specific example they literally tweeted about a C&D we received from some rapper and the follow calls they had with their counsel. Just embarrassing to have people in those positions so giddy about getting the attention of a hip hop star that they had to rattle off a dozen tweets and facebook posts to brag about it.

Pros

You get to work with highly intelligent people to solve the latest problems that face the Internet. Massive amounts of data passes through the network, hackers launch complex attacks, and global politics actually effect you. It's a truly impressive place to work. And you're ultimate goal is to make the Internet a better place. That's just awesome. The office is gorgeous and loaded with great amenities to make your work experience comfortable. There's a great work/life balance, but it is still a start up.

Cons

You could stand to make more money. With massive growth, it's hard to find who has the information you need, which means it can sometimes be a real challenge to complete a task. But everyone is nice enough that it's not a terribly dreadful journey.
