      Pros

      -base salary and RSUs are competitive -most everyone are highly qualified and are trying to do their best work -standard silicon valley tech perks: fitness, food, beer/wine, VIP visits -lots of courses to improve tech or soft skills -improv classes!! -management tries to be transparent to the whole company

      Cons

      - since company isn't GAAP profitable many ancillary benefits aren't up to the level of Google or Facebook. 401K is an easy example. shuttle bus routes are limited and buses can be unreliable....3 breakdowns in one day even. - culture and bureaucracy is slightly changing with the number of employees skyrocketing from ~2000 to ~3500 in the past two years. - There have been many re-orgs in the engineering Org recently. This brings a sense of uncertainty to some. - feedback and comp systems and procedures go through constant change every six months. Hopefully they will settle on one system and schedule soon.

      Fast-paced, high energy environment with amazing coworkers

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great pay and benefits, extremely smart and competent coworkers, fun and laid-back office and culture. There's a great sense of community within the company, and a lot of excitement about where the company is going. Food is ridiculously good. Hacking on things and developing skills in the things that interest you are strongly encouraged. A lot is changing, and for the better. Definitely on an upward trajectory.

      Cons

      No desserts during lunch. Voluntary sacrifice of work/life balance.

      World-changing platform, people, and opportunities.

      Pros

      Giant aspirations for changing the world combined with a high likelihood of achieving them. Executing on a vast number of initiatives simultaneously, and succeeding. The employee benefits are excellent, the compensation competitive, and the opportunities for movement within the organization is incredibly high; very little friction to following your passion somewhere else within the org.

      Cons

      The organization has grown quickly and there are pockets of people who are reluctant to change and progress with the company. There is quite a distribution of work ethic across the org, and an unfortunate sense of entitlement in a portion of people. These are the same issues that I've experienced at every company; they're just universal truths of companies that grow.
