      Pros

      - Challenging complex problems to solve. - Team dynamics are fun if you're lucky. - Experience is transferable to any other team in the company.

      Cons

      - Your existence in the company is not merit based, but at the whims of the org and company leader's random arbitrary metric that they make up. - Oncall can be a little exhausting, but enjoyable. - Your org is constantly shifting and changing, and the vision is sometimes unclear or mutable.

      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.
