      Pros

      Highly decentralized work environment - every team has its own culture. So pick the right team A very talented set of people to work with at that time

      Cons

      Lethargy? I don't know how else to put it. Things move really slow. Painfully slow. Easy to lose motivation.

      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.
