Pros: Free lunch and dinner, though it's usually some gross slop takeout. The company is located on Castro Street, so there are a bunch of lunch options.

Cons: Pure has gone IPO and now it's going to have difficulty justifying the below-industry base pay and lack of bonuses to its employees. Flash storage is a commodity market and it's a race to the bottom, so don't believe the hype around stock options. The senior management are recycled from typical storage companies like EMC, NetApp, and HP. They like to talk about radical transparency, but the reality is that Engineering is playing catch-up on basic storage features like replication. They just happen to be in a business where the competitors are more incompetent than they are. It's rapidly getting bloated (look at the burn rate) and they will have a hard time hiring talent from other, more innovative Silicon Valley companies. They also love to hire and fire, but it's usually about drinking the Kool-Aid. Being a good engineer who questions the way things are done will get you fired.

Pros: Competitive salary, good tech stack, and a new project.

Cons: No option for remote or hybrid work — strictly office-only policy.

Pros: - Good engineering culture - Some really bright-minded people - Attractive salary

Cons: - A lot of good people left, unfortunately. - High tech debt, huge legacy projects.
