Pros: Company culture, salary, company direction, management, opportunities.

Cons: Slow growth, not a famous company.

Pros: Great culture; lots of openness. Awesome colleagues that are hard-working but also fun, interesting, and helpful. Lots of interesting technical challenges to work on. Still a young and relatively small company. Lots of chances to make a large impact. Great holiday gift this year! Hackathons. Annual ski trip.

Cons: No 401k matching yet. The health plan is not as good as those offered by big companies like Google or Microsoft. The performance review and promotion process is a bit opaque.

Pros: Good pay, potential for quick career growth if your main strength is duplicity.

Cons: Management spends all its time competing for power. Employee careers, project planning, and company direction are nothing more than pawns. Promotions are random. You'll be swapped from project to project without time to complete any, and you'll be told exactly whatever your manager thinks will keep you working, no matter how true it is. Your manager will usually disregard your feedback. You will never get a straight answer, and you can't believe anything you hear from anyone.
