Senior Software Engineer • Current Employee
Seattle, Washington, United States
August 3, 2017
Pros: - Benefits are amazing.
- Products are fun to work on.
- It's easy to determine the value added.
- No bull atmosphere.
Cons: - Things change very quickly, with new features and new technologies.
- The no-bull atmosphere takes getting used to.
- A busy, moderately competitive atmosphere doesn't suit everyone. (I say moderately competitive because it isn't politically competitive, but there is a need to show the value you add to the company).
