RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEO
Pros
  • Unparalleled technical opportunities
  • A relatively transparent and consistent rewards/benefits system
  • Lots of responsibility, even for the most junior posts
  • Never wastes time on anything unimportant
Cons
  • Constant "are-we-there-yet?" navel-gazing about metrics. Often, you spend more time running data queries than actually building anything.
  • Can have a very conformist, "Kool-Aid" culture that is alienating to those over 40.
  • Food is very unhealthy and not very friendly to those with weight problems.
Advice to Management
  • Be aware of the problems of employees burning out. Work-life balance seldom gets more than lip service.
