I wanted to work for a company that will change the world for the better.

The work-life balance is terrible. Expect at least 12hr days every day, usually everyone other Saturday, and sometimes both weekend days.

Pros

Looks great on a resume. Stock options are fantastic.

Cons

If you're a woman, good luck getting a promotion. You will probably never get a vacation, or it will be extremely hard to take one.
