Pros

It is great to be involved in such an amazing endeavor. Fun work. Employee stock purchase plan worked out great for a lot of people.

Cons

Significant portion of employees were graduates from one particular bay area university and they tended to look down on anyone who wasn't from that school. Lagging salaries and benefits.

Pros

Great break rooms, lots of internal job opportunities, above minimum wage pay

Cons

No set schedule. Will change schedule last minute effecting home life. Hard to move up in positions. Hard to be heard. No one takes your experience or knowledge of something unless you have a degree. Moving positions affect not getting raises.
