Pros: Great food, great people, great pay.

Cons: Old people ask you why they can't post photos.

Pros: Great culture. Free food, good benefits.

Cons: Salary is insufficient to make a proper living. Very little career development.

Pros: Open culture, challenging status quo is sort of expected of you; you have a large degree of freedom. You can deliver things at scale fast (that's actually expected of you). Smart, often brilliant and well-meaning people to work with 95% of the time. Focus on people (both employees and users). Good compensation (if you compare things within the UK). Handled COVID really well.

Cons: Onboarding is a hit-or-miss; you need to be very conscious about what team or manager you choose. Managers are a "hit-or-miss" too (this is particularly true for EMEA). There is a lot of change, often a lack of continuity, and a lot of friction (in org, code, ownership...) due to this. There is often short-term thinking; people are smart, but incentives are often set up in a way that encourages short-term thinking. You cannot get away with simply being a great engineer; you need to be a sort of social butterfly and build personal connections as well to meet expectations. Unless you are very conscious about your own growth and career, you can have a hard time growing. Hours can be long in order to meet expectations (WLB can be especially challenging if you need to work with the US west coast). There is peer pressure to achieve more and more and more... This can lead to a vicious cycle and often burnout. Differences in personal circumstances (and willingness/opportunity to put in extra hours) are not really taken into account when impact is measured.
