Business outlook
Pros
-- First years get a whirlwind trip to Oktoberfest. yes THE Oktoberfest. You may also be lucky enough to get onboarded in Europe. -- Bagel breakfast every Friday -- Many opportunities to connect with colleagues internationally. Skype (with voice and video) is used heavily, as are other conferencing technologies.
Cons
-- Open concept seating. Frequent desk moves. -- The 3rd floor and the 4th floor don't talk much to each other. -- Some trips are too short to compensate for the jet lag. -- Agile methodology = numerous useless meetings -- If you start struggling, you are doomed. If you get served with a Development Plan, you are definitely on your way out.
