Pros

- Learn from some great leaders - Startup-like culture and focus on customers is unparallelled - Solve interesting problems - A truly agile data-driven work culture that moves fast and delivers results

Cons

- The size and scale of problems to be solved and the pace of change can be daunting - It can feel like there's hundreds of things to do, but there isn't time in the day to get them all done - Sometimes we can be blinded by trying to deliver a lot of value to our customers and undervaluing the cost of the technical debt we may be accruing until it's too late

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.
