Pros

The company attracts very talented people. You will be working with some of the brightest minds in the industry. Office (Los Angeles) has a very positive energy, the moral is very high.

Cons

It is a very big company. It could be very corporate, but at the same time unlike any other corporate firms out there. It takes a while to figure out how the company operates. It could be confusing.

Pros

good benefits (medical and dental insurance) good paid sick leave, good HR service, paid overtime, well organised social events. good reputation in the industry.

Cons

the 'studio' has more of a factory like feel rather than a work space for design leaders to work in i.e. rows and rows of too many people squeezed in on benches with not many other options for collaborative work apart from bookable meeting rooms. Remote or flexible working is practically unheard of: people are to be seen at their desks (unless senior). Because overtime is paid it is also demonstrably expected.
