Pros

Free Starbucks and snacks. Free Netflix

Cons

Everyone starts at the same hourly pay even if you have experience. The management says they are big on feedback but they will use it against you. Netflix manages on a "do as I say not as I do" philosophy. Managers are the only ones allowed cell phones and pens, employees are not. Training doesn't prepare you for the actual job. I was a Netflix customer from day one which is why I wanted to work for them and after being an employee I wouldn't recommend them as a employer or as a customer. Will leave as soon as another job is secured.

Pros

The job pays well, some peers are brilliant, talented, and fantastic to work with. There is quite a bit of autonomy and the freedom to develop your teams as you see fit.

Cons

NetflixCS is young and the leadership team is not open to new ideas. Management quickly shifts its priorities and it does not seem there is a clear direction for where the company is heading.
