Good place to work

Pros

Benefits and salary are very good and it's a flexible work environment. Leadership seems genuinely concerned.

Cons

Less collaborative than other places I've worked. Not the friendliest, in general. My first job in the tech sector, so maybe this is the norm? Awkward location for a commute and transit benefit isn't very good compared to others in the Seattle area.

Pros

Highly competent people work here, and produce high quality software for excellent hardware. A very open-minded engineering organization that allows room for creative processes. Very nice benefits. For the most part management facilitates engineers. The hiring process is geared toward a good fit rather than pure brilliance, but pure brilliance is not shunned by any means.

Cons

The company is transitioning from a small company to a medium size one, and there are some growing pains.

Pros

Supports and promotes a good work/life balance Pay is good and advancement opportunities are there as long as you dont mind switching teams or focus

Cons

Growing pains are the biggest issues I have seen, and there is some politicking between offices or teams, but Managers try to mitigate or eliminate it when they see it (at least mine do)
