Pros

- Competitive compensation in non east / west coast areas (however, compensation is below par in comparison to other of the large tech companies) - Good health insurance - Plenty of opportunities if you are willing to put your nose to the grindstone and play the political game

Cons

- HR policies drive mercenary instead of missionary mindset in employees afraid of being put on performance plan due to required minimum attrition rates - Poor 401k Match - Promotion process

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.
