      Pros

      Need to lobby for visibility, have to fight for opportunities to influence and deliver on VP/S-team goals to be able move forward in career. I suppose from engineering we lose perspective and get tangled in tech or deeply technical topics when what matters for the business if its delivered and if it holds to an appropriate tech bar.

      Cons

      You can stay in your comfort zone but won't move in your career.

      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.
