Pros

You sleep really well ,after 12-15 hour days. They don't physically abuse you.

Cons

Lots of long days, and mandatory overtime in busy season. (All year) Often thinly disguised malice or prejudice against line employees. Not tasking employees properly, resulting therefore in wide spread disillusionment A form of emotional abuse ongoing, because of unrealistic performance metrics. Don't communicate or fully inform employees about expectations, benefits and of options consistently or honestly. Burnout and emotional issues by C- level management is routine..

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.
