Pros

Full-Stack Development

Lots of perks:

  • Latest MacBook & Apple products
  • Great new office space, conference rooms, etc.
Cons

The learning curve is huge for any new hire.

You'll be faced with a ton of Groupon domain knowledge initially, so you may not contribute at all in the first 6 months, if not more.

Low salary compared to other similar companies.

Groupon is turning from a Ruby to a Java shop.

Lots of opinionated developers.

Hard to ship code.
