Pros

Huge growth, big Company, lots of momentum, lots of opportunity, unique culture, lots of smart people, good compensation

Cons

Culture, big Company fast paced, no systems, lots of smart people (Chiefs but few Indians -essentially you are the Indian in any role you have). Absolutely no work life balance, in fact assume that you will work 60-70 hours a week on average and be expected to answer emails/phone calls at anytime. Day, night, weekends, holidays and even your vacation.

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.
