Pros

It is possible to switch teams often but you would have to wait for a year before you can move out from your current team. the quality of work depends on the team but there are lot of good teams. most of the folks are good.

Cons

Managers have no vision and some of them are terrible at managing people.

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.
