Pros

casual dress. free food (although it really comes out of your salary...)

Cons

Dishonest management in the Omaha office. The whole company is so disorganized and the higher ups have no idea how bad it is (or just don't care). They get rid of new employees who work extremely hard and bring fresh perspectives to the company, while virtually all managers and directors who have been there since the declines began are unquestioned. No way the company will return to its "glory days".

Pros

In CU area Yahoo is one of the better option for software development. All at site enjoy work and $$s.

Cons

Subtle level politics to keep favorite people (read "yes sir/madam") around by shuffling them around to different roles or teams. Good engineers who disagree have been let go using HR designed performance tools. Managers here define their own version of Yahoo way/culture to justify their deplorable actions.
