Pros

Visionary CEO and competent management.

Talented colleagues.

Supports career skills development and internal transfers.

Work-life balance.

Gourmet food in the cafeteria.

6 months maternity / 4 months paternity leave.

Cons

Pay is above average, but not enough to comfortably raise a family in Silicon Valley. The company offers several commuter benefits to make it easier to commute from affordable places.

There's a lot of redundancy in hiring. This helps with work-life balance, but the downside is that you become easily replaceable, and it's harder to get promoted.

Advice to Management

The past 10 years have seen a large growth in bureaucracy. Don't let the company lose its ability to turn on a dime when the business landscape changes. Keep waste low and efficiency high, and don't be afraid to chase new markets.
