Pros

– You work amongst some of the smartest people you will ever meet. – Hours are fine and flexible if you have a close knit team. If you get the work done, then time is not an issue of when you leave or come into work. – Many of workshops and events to keep the staff happy – A number of people is unreal. There are so many side communities you can join that is to your interest. – Work is always challenging and keeps you on the ball – Salary is generous and expected from a large tech company. – Stocks are great on signing. And they keep going up so get in quick!

Cons

– Make sure that you manage and estimate your workload properly. If you don't, you will be punished and will overwork. This is a con if you make it. – Hiring bar is high, therefore hiring new team members can sometimes be hard. But hiring the best is important I guess. – No free food like other tech companies. But I guess that's a bonus and not a con.

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.
