      Pros

      Financially - Opal travel card claims for daily work commute - Phone claims - Amazon RSU - Competitive pay Work life balance - 6 weeks paternity leave - 14 weeks maternity leave - work from home option Work culture - very understanding - culturally diverse

      Cons

      - occasional time crunch where you need to put in more work, rare - big organization with some international dependencies, response can be somewhat slow. - Sydney office does not have as many opportunities as the USA office. - still lack gender diversity but it is getting better - unlike some other tech giants, we are not pampered as much (Frugality).

      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.
