Pros

Great place if you like to enjoy some free perks.

Cons

As designers don't ever work here the culture is about pushing as many features as you can in a quester. There is no thinking related behind any feature just copy/paste from what others are doing. They don't like creative people but just people who are doers as the management likes you to just blindly follow them. Design Directors don't have much to add. Please don't work here if you want to build a career.
