Pros: Great work culture, great work-life balance. Dynamic work environment; folks are very helpful and open about their personal lives, a welcome change from a corporate culture.

Cons: Very new to the company, so far none!

Pros: Great place to work if you're not really about work. Fun people, lots of social stuff going on, lots of free time and mental cycles to devote to other life things like working out, reading, or taking care of kids. Flashy office.

Cons: You are probably going to bleed skills a bit from lack of practice. Low hiring standards, so you're not really working with the best or brightest. Very cliquish and political. It seemed like most of the interesting work was hoarded by a few people, and the rest were fighting over the scraps. If you are not an uber-hipster, you're probably not going to fit in very well. Extremely weak management can't seem to move the needle on anything. Also, negotiate your starting salary well, because adjustments are few and far between.

Pros: Plenty of career growth opportunities here and the ability to have a huge impact. You don't usually get this with as large of a company (or as much technical scale) as we have. It's a pretty special place from that regard. The culture is also great. We have progressive benefits (half a year of parental leave!), yummy snacks, and engaged leadership that really knows what's going on in individual teams and is excited to speak to individuals on those teams.

Cons: Things move quick here. The people who are most successful tend to be comfortable working through ambiguity.
