Pros

Career growth can be fast, although it's slowing recently. Lots to learn, speed of delivery is fast due to great technical systems and prowess amongst engineers.

Cons

Shortsighted freeing of capital to purchase hardware to power AI while maintaining increasing free cash flow will result in decreasing cash flow.

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.
