      Pros

      Some teams have interesting work. Recently, there is a move to use more AWS resources for development which is good because all your internal ramp-up and knowledge won't be waste when you leave company.

      Cons

      Not so great perks compared to other companies of equivalent scale

      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.
