Pros

Extremely smart people - I learned so much from the people I work with. Laid back environment - No dress code, dogs in the office, ping pong table, video games, seated massage Wednesdays, free lunch Fridays .... Reasonably competitive pay.

Cons

People can get very highly opinionated. As the company grows larger, the fun things that were once considered important to the company are getting lost.
