Pros: Pays well, but hey, you'll suffer.

Cons: Avoid at all cost :)

Pros: - Company is doing well, making customers happy. Those options might be worth something someday. - Quick to adopt new technologies, so you won't get behind the industry curve.

Cons: Management is really young and out of their depth. The founders lucked into the business with their school project and are riding the success to multi-millionaire futures. Unfortunately, this doesn't mean that they have any idea of how to run a successful business. High-ego engineers. Tech meetings which should be fun and supportive often devolve into ego contests where engineers try to squash each other's ideas. Worst engineering culture I've ever seen! "Unlimited vacation" actually means that you have to feel guilty about time off, and you don't get credit for unused vacation when you leave. Don't get fooled by this ripoff!

Pros: Moves fast, good pay, and a lot of opportunities for growth and promotions.

Cons: Not as much focus on Eng.
