Pros

It all depends on the team you are part of.

The workload is nice, and perks like ESPP, 401k, and medical benefits are better.

But salary is on the low side compared to other Seattle companies.

Cons

Politics, some people have a lot of ego. Lots of levels. Each title has at least two levels, which sometimes makes it longer to get to senior even if you are working hard.

Advice to Management

Remove levels 59, 61, and 64 from the company.
