Pros

Great engineering team, lots of interesting and tough problems to solve. Smart people abound. Many perks (free food, gym, etc.), good work/life balance, and a great place to learn if you are fresh out of school.

Cons

Lots of politics (and increasingly so), some difficulty managing the super-fast growth, unclear career trajectories, somewhat shortsighted product roadmaps, too much focus on optimizing page views for the short term, compensation all over the place, too many inexperienced product managers in charge of rather important decisions.

Advice to Management

Take more intelligent risks.
