Pros

Amazingly talented people to work with Scale of problems to solve

Cons

Frugality before everything Horrible work-life balance (you only have time for work) Unrealistic deadlines and pressure to meet these deadlines No career growth. If you're stuck in level 5 Software Engineer, there is no way out. I feel like 90% IC software engineers are in level 5 Horrible coffee and even that you have to prepare yourself

Great software platform/tools to develop! ( I had extensive experience in Silicon valley, haven't found a better platform) think of the impact you can make, Great Leadership principles to live by even if you don't work here,

Cons

It can be sometimes hard to make a big enough difference since so many things are going right
