      Pros

      - You're empowered to make decisions and deliver results without waiting on permission. - Customer focused decision making culture. - Creative solutions are encouraged. - Bluntness is appreciated over fluff.

      Cons

      - Workload can be heavy. - Not everyone appreciates blunt truth so the culture can feel abrasive to some.

      Amazon.com, it's not fun, you won't remember it fondly, but you may learn a few things and make a few bucks.

      Pros

      - Money - once you have 2 years in, the salary plus stock is very competative - High visibility product - Technology focused - Smart people - Freedom to make technological decisions (i.e. not centrally mandated) - good performance review process -- highly based on peer feedback

      Cons

      - promotion is difficult past a certain point -- very few job levels - many engineers young and arrogant -- it is a culture of arrogance - poor communiation of company direction or vision - most employees will not feel valued by their senior management - no perks. Frugality means no t-shirts, free pop, or even subsidy of the cafes. Bare bones work environment.
