Pros

You learn a lot in a short time period here, and working 2 years here is pretty much the equivalent in technical and business skills as a masters degree. There are many options to move to once you're in the company, and their ideals for leadership are good ideals. I appreciate the fact that they follow the idea that no matter your level or experience, your opinion will still be heard. It is not often you get rank pulled on you (but it still happens occasionally).

Cons

Expectations of how much you should work seem to be skewed by management. Not a very clear promotional cycle between SDE-1 and SDE-2. It seems very difficult to move up in the company once you hit SDE-3.
