Pros: The manager truly cares about the employee's career growth and happiness. All the perks and benefits are awesome. Coworkers are great to be around.

Cons: Sometimes it can be intimidating to meet new coworkers when they sit in their cliques during meals.

Pros: Good work-life balance, strong teams around.

Cons: The company makes very little money.

Pros: Most of the employees love the product and are very passionate about it. Some of the best engineering minds work on very challenging problems here. Good amount of equity (if you survive long enough for it to vest).

Cons: Twitch is a great product that is being ruined by the work culture and blame mentality that is slowly creeping in from the Amazon acquisition. * **Hire and fire culture.** I have had several teammates who "mysteriously" left. There is constant pressure to deliver, and I have heard lots of horror stories from teammates. * **No work-life balance.** I regularly see emails from managers on weekends. Most of the company is very young, so family time may not be as important for some, but if you are looking for a good work-life balance, then look elsewhere. * **Company is not invested in your success.** The stock vesting schedule is deliberately structured in a way that benefits the company most. You vest most of the stocks after 3-4 years, so it's in your best interest that the company stock rises for the whole time you are employed there. But if you don't perform for whatever reason (family or health problems), good luck, because they will just fire you. I know so many teammates who are just suffering through bad work-life balance because of the promise of receiving equity. * **Product direction is lacking.** The company can't make up its mind on what it wants to achieve. * **No bonus if company stocks perform well.** Seriously? We are not going to give you any bonus this year because the stock is doing so great, so you have already made a lot of money (on paper). Also, keep chugging at the work if you want to see any of this equity that we promised you when you joined, but never told you that it was going to be your bonus as well. LOLZ All in all, this is an okay place to learn and earn, but that would come at a price. I would recommend it if you want to learn a lot and you don't particularly care about work-life balance or company morale. Most people who are passionate about the product have either left or are suffering while waiting for the vesting schedule to hit so they can get some value for all the time they have lost here. Most of the 5-star reviews that I see here are most likely fake reviews given by HR.
