Pros

Great people, great food, great compensation, great learning opportunities, great opportunities to jump into the fast growing code-base. You get to do what matters to the world. Great work/life balance as well.

Cons

Well, I am not a big fan of San Francisco. It's a dirty and dangerous city.

Pros

Twitter has great people all around me. The quality of the advice and discussion the co-workers provide is great. The benefits are great too.

Cons

The massive expansion of the workforce sometimes make it difficult to find an engineer that knows every corner of their product. The volatile stock makes it very difficult to estimate taxes (this might be pro).

Pros

- Given lots of responsibility. - Extremely smart teammates. - Learning a lot about how to write good software. Great as a first job out of school. - Things generally move very fast and we can get quick feedback and iterate.

Cons

- Things move very fast and requirements are often moving targets. - Coming from academia, a lot of the work is not as interesting as I had hoped.
