Pros

Compensation is good, and the stock is on a tear. It's a good place to work if money is the motivation.

Cons

Work is not really interesting. You will work on a lot of one-week tweak projects. Competitive culture, but also a culture of fear, codified by a "speed wins" mantra. Management is cold and ruthless. Classic corporate America. The company will do well because of its ruthless attitude.

Advice to Management

A couple of token social projects will not really hide the kind of company you really are.
