Pros

Salary is good; Lot of career opportunities; Easy to move to other teams. Learning depends on the team you are on.

Cons

Unending and non-stop work that is not worth the additional pay; I don't think they have a concept of work life balance. But my manager strongly recommends not to work more than 8 hours and expects to complete 14 hour work in 8 hours.

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.
