      Great balance, so-so pay, weird MGMT

      Pros

      Work-life balance is fantastic. Flexible hours, easy to truly leave work at work, and fitness breaks are encouraged company-wide. Path of advancement is very clear and objective - if you meet the goals, you manager sends it up for approval and you move on. There are advanced paths for both engineering and engineering management.

      Cons

      Consumer-side developers are constantly putting out fires. This is mostly due to poor internal documentation. According to management, the short time-to-market means documentation and code comments are a luxury.

      Pros

      I was able to work on some great projects when I started.

      Cons

      Whenever they do one of their frequent reorgs, they move you around like a chess piece with little if any input from you.
