Pros

* constantly innovating and pushing open web technology * working on what interests you * using the latest technologies as much as you like * promoting open source worldwide * keeping the web open * not working to line a few people's pockets (no shareholders) * working with a distributed, global team

Cons

* open offices are sometimes noisy (but we can work from home sometimes) * everyone doing what they like makes things a bit chaotic sometimes for company-wide policies that might actually be for the best * news within the org is shared in too many places, so it's hard to always stay abreast of what's happening * not all in one office space so you work with people you may never (or rarely) see in person and get to have informal conversations with

Pros

Great health insurance benefits. Literally you pay nothing per pay check. Also parental leave is 6 months which is rare in the US. Wellness days were nice too.

Cons

Lack of black people in and promoted to senior / management positions even though there are many qualified people to be there. Also management cannot make decisions. They are leaps and bounds behind the competition and many lack competence.
