      Pros

      Many teams are good and twitter-20 is true (a.k.a great food, you gain 20 pounds).

      Cons

      Twitter was previously great place to work. Unlike to bigger companies like Google, there could be better opportunities but the management has FAILED to scale the organization well. Managers have no interest in setting up the new hires for success, they are focused on getting short term results. Thus leading to many cases of hire and fire.
