Pros

Healthy yummy lunches HQ is a nice place with pingpong/foosball and snacks If you land on the right team, the work can be really great; nobody on my team ever works weekend or late nights. I feel really fortunate to be on the team I am. 2% of Salary employee development match. Can be used on books/conferences/classes,etc...

Cons

If you land on the wrong team it seems it can be terrible. Late friday night releases, working weekends, etc... Unlimited PTO actually means 15 days. I don't really know anyone here who wishes we just didn't have normal vacation time, rather than this ambiguous policy. The message is b/c it's about getting your work done not time. But then managers are told to actually keep things around 15 days. Pay is average, could probably get better somewhere else in Silicon Valley Raises aren't negotiable 401k match is only $2,000 a year.

Pros

Decent pay, stock options are valuable, relevant technologies and the occasional team building event.

Cons

Poor management decisions and reaction to escalation, pressure to do what you are told even if there is a better option, a lot of working on your own, seniors scapegoating when things go wrong, unhappy and unhelpful peers who seem to disappear a lot, having to hear peers complain openly about how tools, work, and people are terrible but they don't get to defend themselves. Once I heard two management personnel joking 'this person should be fired' when something went wrong. That's not even funny and from anyone else wouldn't be acceptable but management seems to get away with a lot. Don't get on their bad side...or you are on your own.
