Pros: - Smart people - Fast pace - Great leadership - Awesome benefits - Tightly knit teams/company Working for a company that is driven by a vision that every employee shares makes working a pleasure. People here work hard and are great at getting things done. It also helps that we all use our application multiple times a week so we understand the product that we're building.

Cons: - As a company that is growing exponentially (global reach and its personnel), we're constantly faced with new challenges in scaling people and processes. Although handling growing pains is well executed, it requires constant communication that sometimes isn't perfectly executed. - You'll be pushed to work hard and get a lot done. If you can't keep up with the work, it will impact your work-life balance.

Pros: - Work with some very brilliant people. - Opportunity to learn a lot about software design, data analytics, marketing, biz dev, etc. - Center of attention at cocktail parties since you are working at the hottest company in the world.

Cons: Ultra-aggressive deadlines, cumbersome processes, and huge workload. Daily firing (stack ranking and constantly letting "bottom performers" go). Terrible place for new grads as there are no grace periods to ramp up or learn. Many are let go after just two months. Offers are no longer competitive with many established companies when one considers the misleading nature of the preferred share prices. Incredible amounts of politics (company culture encourages back-stabbing amongst colleagues). Company lies to recruits (stating huge bonuses, using preferred share prices to calculate equity compensation, promises for quick promotion, etc.). Bad food with dinner served at 8:15. Firing people right before their stock vest cliff. Equity won't be liquid for a long time, if ever. Highly stressful environment.

Pros: Culture, work-life balance, everything.

Cons: Nothing so far. They used to micromanage in my last place.
