      Pros

      Many teams working on interesting projects. Minimal "red tape" for implementing or improving features. Many teams which own high impact components - good visibility when improvements are made.

      Cons

      Management usually prioritizes aggressive project timelines above software and design quality. Many teams have a lot of support work for their components. Noisy and crowded work environment.

      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.
