Pros

Endless opportunities to work on interesting, cutting-edge projects. Tons of autonomy, ownership, and decision-making responsibilities given to even the youngest employees. Ability to change jobs frequently without having previous industry experience.

Cons

Very little transparency regarding HR-related issues (e.g. promotions, performance reviews, compensation). Rough promotion process that requires employees to take on higher-level work for at least 6 months before being rewarded with higher-level compensation and titles.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
