Pros: The rotation program is good for a variety of experience. Depending on the team, work hours in the APG team could be short. Most people here in SF leave between 5-6. Work is not too stressful. Nap room is pretty neat.

Cons: 1. Don't really have lots of technically challenging projects. In fact, I wasn't even given SWE work for the past few months despite being in the APG group. I worked more like a business operations person. 2. If you are not in finance, you feel like a second-class citizen. 3. They significantly underpay you compared to other tech companies in the Bay Area. After I left the company, my salary doubled. 4. Micromanagement is everywhere. Senior managers walk around on the floor to see how hard people are working every day, how many hours of face time they show, etc. 5. No perks. No free lunch or dinner, or anything. 6. Very finance-y culture. They watch how you dress every day and when you show up to the office. Super hierarchical. You only get to do what your manager tells you to do, in the way they want it done, if you are a junior person. I wouldn't recommend anyone who's a software engineer to work here.

Pros: People are willing to listen to ideas and create opportunities for you to run with them and make them a reality. Senior members of the company are easy to talk to and make time for people. Many managers are invested in people and their career growth. HR is pushing for this to invest in people’s growth and careers.

Cons: Thanks to the willingness to listen and invest in innovation, there is often a lot going on at once. The current manager lottery is very much 50/50 from my perspective. You are as likely to end up with an amazing one as you are to end up with one where you have to find a mentor elsewhere to help you grow.

Pros: - Very smart and sensible co-workers and management. - Good work/life balance. - Transparency in the road map. - Everyone is encouraged to provide feedback. - Acquisition hasn't slowed us down (yet...).

Cons: None so far. Fingers crossed.
