Pros

Great team at the lower levels. Some smart people.

Cons

Management is fragmented and implements a "fear-based" style. They threaten PIP's as motivation to work harder with unachievable goals. Executing basic projects cross-functionally is very political and inefficient.

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.
