Pros

The culture is very open and honest, and the heavy use of groups internally keeps everyone accountable to others. Company-wide Q&As also keep the management team transparent.

The work you do is high impact, and products iterate quickly.

Hackamonths actively encourage engineers to try a different team occasionally.

There are lots of opportunities to continue learning, like training for iOS and Android development.

Cons

Work/life balance can be tough, depending on the team. This is up to personal preference, though, and many teams (especially those in infrastructure) have more stable projects.

Coasting doesn't work here; you always have to be actively improving and not rest on laurels.
