Pros

My team is great. Flexible hours. Work life balance. Wonderful manager. Ability to work from home. Team activity every once in a while. Most team members help each other out when help is needed.

Cons

My team is great. Some other teams are not so good. Normal cons for a big software company. Sometimes on call on weekends (during the day, once or twice a month).

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.
