Pros

I really like how Twitter focuses on transparency and has a small company feel. Frequent all-hands meetings bring everyone together around our common goals. Everyone is helpful and is pumped to make things better. From a tech standpoint, Twitter pushes the industry forward in many areas.

Cons

Have to be able to ignore the noise of working at a public company that gets a lot of attention. Fast paced environment may not be for everyone.
