Pros

Flexibility - work hours/work from home (corporate). Good benefits, pay was good (I was promoted twice). Good people

Cons

Lack of further growth - I would've had to laterally move to a completely unrelated position and my skills became too specific to the team I was on, and I had grown as much as I could in my current position. Then, I worked too hard to be suddenly pushed out as an underperformer.

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.
