Pros

Some really challenging work with really good salary. They pay more than the market. Chaps working around are really tech sound and usually helping but that may vary from team to team.

Cons

Technically you are hired to work 24 hours. And no one will like to work like that for any incentive. Their oncall make you feel like machines who are dead inside.

Pros

Easy work for good pay. Lots of career advancement opportunity. Very luxurious compared to other warehouses and very forgiving.

Cons

Not a lot of bathrooms and when you're being time tracked for productivity it can be very difficult to find a time to comfortably go.

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.
