Pros

Free food, lots of swag and watching TV while you work.

Cons

Favoritism gets you everywhere! Performance doesn't matter as much as kissing supervisor behind. They aren't EOE like they claim, if you get on their radar they'll nit pick looking for any reason to let you go. People disappear and are never spoken of again. You're treated like a drone.

Pros

I wasn't looking to change jobs, Netflix found me and offered me a very generous salary and relocation to leave my employer. I loved my job but it only lasted 4 months after they hired someone from another big company and he wanted to bring in his own team. I was still in corporate housing when they let me go. They said the new manager didn't have chemistry with me but I had only met with him twice and he had only been working there for two weeks before he decided to let me go over said "chemistry". The new guy was very unprofessional and treated me in ways that do not align with the Netflix culture. I talked to the VP that hired me and he said he was very sorry and that I had done nothing wrong and didn't need to change a thing but that he had to support this other guy in his decision. I wish things would've worked out different but I did enjoyed my time while there.

Cons

You can be let go without warning based on very little substance to support it. They have many reasons they can let you go but they never talk about the unjustified reasons. Think twice about relocating for them.
