Pros

Great benefits. Exciting to roll out code to such a massive user base. Making a true effort to renew itself.

Cons

A bureaucratic nightmare while I was there. I've heard Marissa has made things better.

Terrible morale.

Too much middle management attempting to justify their positions.

No culture to speak of (aside from purple things).

Advice to Management

Weed out much of the middle management.

Make smaller, autonomous teams.

Stop the insane bureaucracy.
