Pros: AppLovin is a great place to work at, and I think it has a very bright future ahead.
There are a lot of interesting engineering challenges, opportunities to grow, and the team is really smart. I am learning something new every day.
Also, the catered food is awesome!
Cons: The office parking lot gets crowded on some days, but since I use company-sponsored Caltrain, it doesn't really bother me.
