Pros

nice snack bar, whatever you like

Cons

I was fired and replaced by a buddy hire right before their IPO before they legally have to assign stock options to their staff. Nefarious management who knows no bounds. I got lucky however, because before me a group of 5 people were fired in their entirety, no questions asked. Be prepared for cutthroat workplace, or become friends with management.
