      Pros

      You get to work with a lot of smart people. The perks and benefits were great. Free dinners if you worked late but that was cut because of budgeting.

      Cons

      While there were a lot of smart people, there was also a lot of egos that didn't match capabilities. Everyone was a specialist and at everyone's else's job. Long hours for the sake of long hours. No processes for anything. Poor, poor pay raises.

      Pros

      Free ebook every week, good benefits, free lunch every day if you’re in the office.

      Cons

      Extremely siloed to the point where people in the same team don’t even communicate. A lot of people that are hired are not fit for the role they are hired for. A lot of favortism, same people getting recognition over and over again even for mediocre work. They try to sell this image of being a friendly brand/company to work for but there is a good amount of hostility, cliques and politics within the org that make it difficult to navigate. Pay is not competitive.
