      Pros

      I work with a group of smart engineers. Everyone is friendly and helpful. Even though there is heavy oncall, I learn a lot from it.

      Cons

      Random/Bad organization. I am not sure if it happens also in other big companies. There are lots of re-organizations happened in my team. I have been changed to report to 3 different managers within one year and a half. It is hard to focus on the development and to get promotion.

      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.
