Pros

You'll work with some of the smartest people you've met

Cons

You must be a strong willed individual and be ready to prove your case with data and to fight for your viewpoint against the odds. If you aren't willing or capable of doing this, you won't enjoy your job much.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
