Pros

will be exposed to both smart&dumb retail business details.

Cons

Employees experience double standards across the company. You are unlikely to get a bonus or raise if you do not give them a competing offer. And you might be blamed for trying to leave them for money. Ridiculus.

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.
