Pros: Very good work/life balance. Market leader. Financial outlook is good. If cons of the sort described below don't bother you, you can have a very successful, stable, stress-free 9-5 job.

Cons: Management (in San Francisco at least) has a systemic inability to recognize and correct bad decisions. It seems like they spend most of their time in meetings making excuses so they don't have to take a perceived political hit for making a bad choice, instead of owning it and doing something better. This influence from the top has made its way into individual hiring decisions, where hiring managers make excuses for candidates and look down on anyone who gives negative interview feedback. This has created an engineering culture where people either blindly do what they're told and code exactly to spec (even if it's the wrong thing for customers and the company), or get frozen out, badmouthed, and belittled for speaking their minds and raising valid concerns. Add to this a total lack of technical mentorship or career growth opportunities, and I guess what I'm saying is that it's definitely not an engineering-driven culture.

Pros: Still a good place to work.

Cons: Career progression has become difficult to achieve. Folks in the "old days" were moving up the ladder on a yearly cadence. A good chunk of incompetent folks. Now, junior employees have to face a lot more scrutiny to climb.

Pros: There are no pros as such.

Cons: Advice for job seekers: Don't join this company or make suggestions to your friends, as you may regret your decision to join this company. You will experience the worst work culture. You will be highly micromanaged by your manager and pressured for work that is not even required. Your manager will show off to the higher management.
