Pros

Remote work, salary and benefits

Cons

Hurry up and do nothing. Use a lot of words to say nothing. Visibility not reliability is the key. Promotion tracks are dead ends. Acronym soup leads to a constant steam of new KPIs to overwhelm the senses. Befriending leadership is more important to long term success than building high performing teams or delivering innovations. Get comfortable being uncomfortable.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
