Pros

This place looks pretty good on your resume and you will learn a lot about working at global scale that is unbelievable on a daily basis.

Cons

Extreme hours with terrible performance review process that encourages individuality and discourages teamwork in many ways. The senior management is constantly changing the target and the bar. Prepare for early burnout. Plus with the "Quarterly Performance Review" (QPR) you never know if/when you're going to be fired over something stupid.

Pros

Everyone is very positive and nice. There's a ton of opportunity to make an impact with the scope and scale each employee is responsible for.

Cons

Product strategy seems frantic and directionless at times, although differs between product teams.
