Pros

Modern offices with state of the art infrastructure; pantry with free snacks; a great learning opportunity as management allows anyone to do anything (regardless of their experience); decent benefits; great employees

Cons

Terrible management; low base pay with next to no yearly increase; equity offered to try and prevent turnover (vests over 3 years); people take on more than they can handle, resulting in botched outcomes; very cheap and always trying to save a buck when they can, regardless of the impact

Pros

A very distinct culture of gritty, brilliant individuals. Very generous compensation. Lean org structure with access to the senior most leaders.

Cons

Not a company for those who aren't self starters. You will thrive here if you are diligent and independent.

Pros

Giant international corporation with unlimited resources. Multiple locations around the country and the globe with tons of jobs that are open for internal transfer (with some considerations). Generally high pay range.

Cons

Giant international corporations treat you as an unlimited resource. They use "Unlimited PTO" model for Sick and Vacation time, which I feel is a misnomer and a disingenuous concept as a whole. Unrealistic fixation on making employees use AI with no clear plan or direction on how it should happen.
