Pros

Impact, scale, the learning, tools, smart coworkers, the perks (free food!), reputation / resume name value, the compensation, internal mobility.

Cons

Work-life balance can be a challenge. Also sometimes hard to not feel overshadowed if you're not a SWE. Overall though it's awesome.

Surreal, beautiful workplace with exceptionally positive culture

Business Outlook

Pros

The perks are amazing, the compensation is great, the products are amazing, and the infrastructure/tooling is excellent. Above all else, I love the positive, exciting attitude I deal with every day. Not every single person is totally on-board, but the ratio of positive, excited, friendly people is higher than any other workplace I've seen.

Cons

I haven't encountered a significant "con" yet, other than the extremely high expectations - but is that a con, if everyone around you is invested in your success and tries to help you excel?
