Pros

Lot's of autonomy and the opportunity to work with very smart, very hard-working people. Cutting edge technology and very successful business model.

Cons

Very individualistic, non-team oriented. A pass/fail attitude that rewards a few for heroic, individual effort, but few systems, support, or clarity. Very spartan work environment. And even lower quality of work life - although some of it is by personal choice, most people look stressed and often frantic.

Pros

fast paced. ownership of issues. so many issues arise you can pick the ones you want to work on

Cons

in the 6 years I've been there it's as if we *NEVER* learn anything from our mistakes, and commit the same ones over and over again. Senior management is completely disconnected from the workload of the workerbees and completely ignore the chaos and broken tools.
