      Pros

      Cutting edge technology. Robust infrastructure for development, code, review, and deployment process.

      Cons

      Leadership does not place high value on respecting employees. Often heard the top level director of my org yelling and even cursing at lower level employees. Also it is not uncommon for an employee to be on the "in trouble and needs to improve" list and not be told.

      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.
