Pros

Good company to be at. Smart people, bright ideas, great vision. Truly enjoyed working with the people from all layers (eng, design, PMs, analysts, etc.).

Cons

Nervous and "toestepping" environment: people spend too much time on showing off in front of the management instead of doing real work. Too much of a career focus: your teammates can step on your head if you fall down :)

Advice to Management

No advice here at all. Probably, reduce the amount of load for people and adjust the cultural values that are hard to remember.
