Pros

Working for a cutting egdge technology company. Bright, very competent and colleagues, can benefit a lot from their experience and accelerate leanring curve. Excellent learning/professional development capabilites offered by the company. Competitive compensation. Top notch laptops and other tech equipment. Trendy offices, free lunches twice a week.

Cons

The job implies a lot of travel, but this was made clear to me upfront, so no surprise. Timezone differences are not always easy to accomodate.
