Pros

* High paced, interesting work * Lots of smart people * Pretty good pay * Good health insurance and average PTO (US)

Cons

* Really poor company politics/culture that seemed to only get worse over time * Hong Kong centric, so the experience anywhere else suffers greatly * Lots of out-of-hours work, expectation to be available for meetings 16hrs/day * Most managers (upper and lower) are good technically but quite bad people managers, with no effort to recognize or improve this * Low transparency, the occasional all hands meetings were usually disingenuous cheerleading sessions * Yearly layoffs * Very transactional * No 401k match

Pros

Good pay with talented folks to work with and learn from.

Cons

Cut throat leadership. Rogue (rough shot) leaders who reign just because things are getting done. But leave culture circling the drain.
