      Pros

      Genuinely nice people. Technical challenges that rival Google's with 1/100th of the engineers working on them. Great monetary trajectory. Maturity of eng organization. Lack of arrogance at all levels.

      Cons

      Lack of arrogance can also lead to lack of confidence and willingness to take risks.

      Pros

      - Fast-paced environment with emphasis on getting things done - Lots of opportunity for career advancement. Pinterest prioritizes employee development and there's fluidity throughout the org, so no one gets "stuck" in one role/team - High impact across the board. Ratio of users to employees is awesome. My individual work influences millions of people everyday - Authentic, humble culture. People are incredibly nice and sincere

      Cons

      - Open office, so it's easy to get distracted with fun people and activities around all the time - No hot breakfast

      Pros

      - Smart people - Good work-life balance. - Lots of interesting (both in a good way and a bad way) things to work on. - Tremendous upside both intellectually and financially. - The product is actually cool once you cast off the stereotype that it's just for middle-aged white women in Kansas.

      Cons

      - Food is average at best - No gym - Onboarding process for new engineers needs work, but it's getting better. - Company plan for shedding the initial stereotypes is not clear. - The office floor plan / open layout / lighting sucks. - There are some stupid political undertones brewing in the engineering org. I suppose that's inevitable, though, as the company grows.
