Pros

Beig surrounded by the most passionate people in the world without doubt helps in performing well. The company attracts top notch talent that is inspiring to work alongside. Great learning opportunities and technical challenges.

Cons

Incredible growing pains. Teams with proven track records of failures still being put in charge of mission critical projects. Lots of inexperienced junior managers. Unusual number of games and political plays at middle management level. Salaries not competitive for the employee calibre the company wants to attain. Average perks. Very poor stock option program, with RSUs reserved only for senior management.
