Pros

Top-notch engineering talent and excellent compensation

Cons

Very aggressive, not lifestyle-friendly, very focused on making money. Sometimes it feels like a Wall Street firm. Not for the long-term unless you can be aggressive day-in and day-out for years and years.

Advice to Management

Relax a bit, and respect people more.
