      Pros

      Great place for people who like to dig in, learn stuff, try things out, and get stuff done. On-boarding process is basically "Here's your desk." It's up to you to meet people, figure out internal systems, and make your place. Lots of mobility within the company. Excellent benefits and pay. Thought and Technology Leader in key market segments.

      Cons

      Like many tech companies, this one is highly siloed. Marketing and Product Development seem to have very different perspectives on what the company is, what it does, and where it is going. (I expect this may change with the new CEO, however, being from the PD side of the organization.) Lack of space in the existing location can cause teams to be fragmented across many floors and buildings, creating isolation, and hampering communication.

      Pros

      There are many potential groups to work in here for a technically skilled person. It's not like you are locked into a particular job, so there is a lot to do for someone new to the industry.

      Cons

      The company is growing very quickly and it is straining the space available in Seattle and San Jose to the point where employees are getting less space. They're being moved around. It's not a huge deal, but it's noteworthy.
