Pros

Fun work environment, easy to find talented co-workers who help you grow, interesting and growing market. Best place I've worked so far.

Cons

Twitch is no longer a small company, which in general means a number of things: you have less influence, there's more process, things move slower. Still likely better than most workplaces of similar size though.
