Pros

The culture is very much what you see in the slide deck. Mostly smart and considerate coworkers. Netflix is very generous to employees. You get cheap trinkets every time there is a milestone.

Cons

There are actually a few incompetent and rude people that get in the door. Usually they don't stick around. If you work on a problem that can't be a/b tested, it can be hard to get traction for new ideas.

Great Idea, Not so great execution

Pros

Wonderful spirit among the employees, Call center is fairly nice with a plethora of break rooms, services and aesthetic feel. Pay was good and comes with service perks.

Cons

Company will tell you they don't use key indicators to control employment, but this also enables them arbitrarily terminate employees. Management is very persnickety and often unreliable. Coworkers generally help you when you have a problem because the management is standoffish. Software engineers are fairly laughable. The concept and pricing for the service is great, but the actual programs on many operating systems is horridly designed in many area, as customers will frequently point out.
