Pros

The company, the culture, the benefits and the people - this place is as close to every geek's dream job as it gets, especially if you care about OpenSource technology. Free training and certifications, annual raises and stock options.

Cons

Sometimes, having to work with the upstream community can be frustrating

Pros

- Challenging. If you thrive, you stand to learn and grow much. - Awesome name on resume - Very smart co-workers

Cons

- Compensation. The amount of work being done, with the level that it is accomplished at, leaves the compensation below industry. - Travel - Work life balance. - At times, felt like staff augmentation. - Some frustrating coworkers. Culture of complete transparency can lead to lots of pedantic debates.
