Pros

* friendly, intense, interesting people * founders are cool people * casual and open work environment, very large office * the product vision is world-changing and open-ended * lots of really challenging engineering problems * light management, lots of freedom

Cons

* due to the flatness of the organization and how much people care, people tend to argue about little things * lots of time is spent interviewing as we rapidly grow * the harshest and most necessary feedback can sometimes take a while before its delivered * even though i love the open floor office arrangement, it can sometimes be distracting

Pros

Benefits: - Personal wellbeing allowance - Annual performance bonus - Equity - Internet & cell phone reimbursement

Cons

Very little room for growth. No real sense of job security due to the constant layoffs. Execs chase the latest and greatest trends, only to abandon projects halfway through. There’s no real sense of leadership or direction—where’s the company headed? What’s the actual goal of [xyz] project?
