Pros

Netflix's commitment to attracting highly-motivated, creative thinkers throughout the organization means clever solutions and great ideas can come from anywhere at anytime.

Cons

There is a certain pressure to perform that comes from the level of freedom granted that results in a percieved sink or swim mentality.

Crippled Culture

Pros

-some phenomenally smart people -great resume builder (if you have the ability to insulate yourself from the cons) -the opportunity for exposure to leading-edge work -great communication about strategic direction of the company and understanding -- everyone know what it as stake -free membership

Cons

-much talk about Netflix 'culture' internally, but few walk the walk. Politics and immaturity are alive and well here, especially at the senior management level despite popular internal belief -people disappear (are fired) daily, and the excuse is often simply 'not a fit'. You never know when your number is up -company programs such as benefits changes, SOP etc., which are meant to be leading edge, simple, and innovative are most often poorly communicated and confusing -unprofessional behavior such as disparaging remarks, put-downs, and talking behind the backs of others, from those who should be modeling the opposite behaviors -limited structure in certain areas where at least some process would be helpful, often feels like throwing darts in the dark and decisions are often emotionally based on not data-driven -speaking up earns you a target on your back

Pros

good benefits, pay ok but don't expect to be paid super well they will low ball you

Cons

Upper management doesn't really live by the culture memo at all. I would also recommend talking-to POC and see how
