Pros

- Motivated employees - Driven management - Minimal Red Tape and strong bias for action - Great quality gates and structure in place to ensure quality is not compromised for speed - Customer Obsession is very strong at every level - Feel a great sense of pride and accomplishment for the work you do - Management focuses on getting work done not on actual time spent at work - Management rewards high performers

Cons

- Very less ramp up time given to new employees. But if you want to make a difference as soon as possible this is the place to be - Need to work on setting time consciously for self-improvement and educating yourself

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.
