The best people I've ever worked with, technically and personally, in a business that is growing very fast
Software Engineer • Current Employee
San Francisco, California, United States
November 1, 2014
Pros: The engineering team is top tier.
The focus on core values produces a great, diverse culture.
The business is growing fast, which is good for career growth at the company (and growth of your stock options).
Cons: It can be hard to onboard so many new people. This is a good problem to have, though.

Exciting Work, Cold Food
Software Engineer • Current Employee
San Francisco, California, United States
August 22, 2013
Pros: Great atmosphere, lots of opportunity, still a small company. It's great being a part of such an exciting company. Every day is an adventure, and it's like nothing I've ever experienced.
Cons: The food is not very good. It's usually cold, and the vegetarian options aren't great. The food is better than Google, but not as good as Twitter.
Being at such a young, immature company means the benefits are young and immature. The salary is okay, but I still took a 40% pay cut to join this company. Hopefully, the stock options will be worth something someday.
