Pros

- good products when they came out, now technologically outpaced by open-source solutions - nice offices

Cons

- US centric - nepotism, IF you have important friends you'll progress, otherwise good luck - people promoted to managers because of their hard skills not their leadership, disaster

Nepotism gone wild!

Pros

Lots of booze, good RSUs, food

Cons

Fast growth led to uncontrollable nepotism. People grossly unqualified for their roles is the norm, zero attention to employee growth and development. Level of politics matches that of a presidential campaign. Those promoted beyond their qualifications make every underhanded attempt to cling to their positions. Despite common knowledge of friendships between people and those that hired them despite being unfit for their roles, no action is taken.
