Pros

Coworkers work very hard and are very smart (may be a con if you want to get ahead or coast somewhere, this is not that place)

Cons

Politics at many levels, promotions/leveling seem arbitrary Various senior hires made that get paid 2x 4x what people who started out of college and been working a few years make. These senior hires do not contribute 2x or 4x the value

Pros

- Decent compensation - Free breakfast and lunch - Pretty decent teammates who carry their own weight and are open to sharing what they know

Cons

- High pressure to perform to a certain framework they're looking for, if you're a fit, it's great, otherwise it might not work out - Results driven, effort is not rewarded if your project ends up getting shelved
