Pros

Great benefits, open culture, very LGBTQ friendly. Global company. Your designs will get seen by millions, not thousands, of people. Tons of potential for advancement if you're the type to get out and climb the corporate ladder.

Cons

Lots of the work can be pretty uninspiring. There's a lot of pressure. Especially if you're trying to stick around for more than a year or two. People who don't buy into all that corporate ladder climbing are at risk of being "managed out." Take care not to churn & burn.

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.
