Pros

Laid-back environment, many of the other engineers are quite talented. Managers seemed to be hit & miss -- mine was astoundingly excellent but friends I had there would often complain about theirs. Great work-life balance. Only had to stay late once or twice in a year. Plus it's right within walking distance of a ton of good restaurants and you can go out whenever for food....nobody's staring over your shoulder.

Cons

There are a few people who are a bit difficult to get along with, but that's true of anywhere. Some of the managers are a littttttle incompetent, so you might be very happy or very frustrated depending what team you're on.

Pros

Smart people Good managers Lots of snacks Cool office Good location Upward mobility potential Lots of performance feedback

Cons

Management focuses way too much and strict metrics, they do not take any gray area into account. If you can't achieve certain metrics you're let go

Pros

Fun people, easy going atmosphere. Great work events and great location. Lots of opportunity but if you aren't on the engineering side of things or have been there for years you won't get paid. Great place to work if you just graduated.

Cons

Pay is not good. Lots of opportunity to move up, but even when moving up the pay will not increase by much. Tough to live in the area given the amount they pay.
