Pros

Work place resources, Friendly HRs, Cool CEO.

Cons

Management is not what I had expected, and they don't know what to do with the college grads they hire and assign crappy work. Pretty much same with every guy they've hired. The technology being used is age old compared to the other companies. If you want to learn anything other than business domain, then you should probably choose some other offer. But I believe that the trend might change in a few years as they're hiring more and more young people.

Pros

Some really truly great people to work with.

Cons

Competition within the same team to handle the same piece of work has created tension. Groups operate in silos far too often and there's a ton of politics to deal with. Lack of concise direction from executive level - they preach one thing, or get on you for not having built something, then turn around and cut resources/funding for that same thing they were claiming was a priority. Be consistent.
