Pros

Opportunity to demonstrate ownership, bias for action and deliver results, amongst others of the company's Leadership Principles. Fast-paced environment with constant change that keeps you on your toes if this fits with your working style.

Cons

Constant org and leadership changes leading to changing priorities, ambiguity and disruption/instability. It's common to have a new manager every 2 or 3 months depending on the org changes. The company also focuses so much on writing that it sometimes takes away from getting any actual work done.

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.
