Pros

You will learn a lot, especially if you are in the beginning of your career. You will have the chance to learn about the bigger picture and will have a say in deciding the future of the team. You can even propose ideas targeting specific problems that you have observed. If the management likes it you will get to work on it.

Cons

Work, work, work. Not many company activities or perks Frugal to a fault. You don't even get two big monitors!!!

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.
