Pros: Twitch has been consistently a good place to work since I joined. It's not perfect, but I'd take this over pretty much all my friends' jobs who also work in tech in SV. * Happy with my pay and benefits * Company is doing well * Amazon mostly leaves us alone * Great new workplace (SF only) * Smart coworkers, if sometimes immature * Freedom to do my job the best way The last point is pretty important to me. I'm not micromanaged. I understand others may feel differently about their teams, and that's valid, but it hasn't been my experience. I can say I've gotten better at my profession since I joined, which is as much as I could really ask for.

Cons: Some inexperienced teammates have the best of intentions, but wind up slowing you down, creating unnecessary controversy, Slack debates that go nowhere, and so on. The sometime road-to-nowhere project that gets dropped on us and then killed can be pretty annoying, too.

Pros: Everyone was kind and nice.

Cons: Not very prompt at interview times.

Pros: Amazing Coworkers. Everyone is talented, smart, and willing to help. Lenient Management.

Cons: Lots of Tech To Review
