Pros: Unlimited PTO, July 4th break, and a two-week company break at the end of the year.

Cons: Since Amazon took over, Twitch has been hacked apart. 50% of the employees have been let go in the last year, so that should tell you all you need to know.

Pros: Salary is the only good thing.

Cons: My experience was a manager telling me I needed to innovate, but a lead blocking me from doing that. I was accused of lying to avoid admitting a mistake, when in actuality, I found a bug that nobody wanted to see me reproduce. I was told that maybe my book accidentally bumped a button and turned off a device in the rack. When a coworker told me about the unprofessional things someone was saying about me, she was told not to speak to me anymore. I went to HR about all of the unprofessional treatment I received (there was much more) and I got put on a PIP. That is when I negotiated my out with their legal team. It is not worth it to try to prove yourself around men that do not want to believe a woman can be a good engineer.

Pros: Business is doing great. Employees are treated well. Leadership is honest and humble. Engineers are given latitude to solve problems however they need to. The best people I've ever worked with are on my team right now. Twitch is doing something right to crush it this hard.

Cons: Some teams are pushing hard for broader adoption of Amazon tools and technology. It seems to be half the company all-in on Amazon and half very skeptical. So far, it hasn't gotten in the way, but I work in an org that wouldn't be affected since Amazon isn't doing what we are.
