Pros

Great technology, great engineers.

Benefits are great.

Cons

Vacation time is not recorded. Hence, you do not accumulate PTO. I would have preferred accrued PTOs over "unlimited" PTO since you would have to request PTOs from your manager. It's up to your manager to let you have PTO.

It's a good gimmick accounting to wipe off PTO liability off the books.

I would have preferred better 401K matching. It's half of what my previous company's matching.

Advice to Management

None.
