Pros

Autonomy to make decisions Planning process does not back in from a budget, money is used on the best data Growing company, so less jockeying for status and positions vs working smart

Cons

No attempts to create a balance for employees who want to succeed AND see their families Leadership is not willing to be reflective about their own leadership failings, but expect their directs to be better than they are

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.
