      Pros

      Innovative company with strong growth and brand recognition, pay and benefits are good, the work is challenging and there are some great people that work there. New hire orientation was a good experience and fun to attend.

      Cons

      The culture sounds great at the beginning however, in reality there is no empathy or understanding of human error. People are not given the time to learn, make mistakes and grow from the mistake, instead one mistake (even small) will get you shown to the door. There is no training and even high powered professionals need some direction and guidance. There is a lot of fear and uncertainty inherent in the culture and it leads to an "every man for himself" culture which does not promote teamwork.

      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
