Pros

Small teams, ability to make lots of impact, ability to create new processes and have high interaction with Sr. Managers and Directors. Amazing office and it is great working downtown. Easy access to Muni, Bart, CalTrian, walking distance to Polk and Haye Valley restaurants and bars for after work. Twitter provides great free food for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Cons

You have to wear multiple hats and pivot quickly. Some process/programs are unestablished so some things take a little work to get up and running.
