Pros

Freedom and responsibility! The 7 Great Reasons to work at Netflix are actually true!

Cons

If you can’t self manage you will not succeed...you need to be able to own and drive the business...no one will hold your hand! Not a downside for me, but could be for others.

Pros

- Working with incredibly talented people that are passionate about their work - A transparent leadership culture that is not afraid to address any missteps quickly and openly - A metrics-driven, "consumer science" culture that values testable hypotheses and numbers over egos and cronies - Encourages "mavericks" and the right to challenge anything and anyone respectfully - Treats employees as "fully formed adults" and provides all of the "freedom and responsibility" that comes with that.

Cons

- You are expected to be a pro at what you do. Mediocre performance is not tolerated - You are expected to manage your own career, which may be hard for some- particularly those new to their careers
