Pros

You're involved in something that's changing the world. That's huge & exciting in itself. You're also working with very very intelligent people, so there's always an opportunity to learn. The cafeteria is phenomenal & you can wear whatever you like.

Cons

A lot is done manually. We focus on the customer experience & do what we have to do on the back end to make it seamless, so things don't work as smoothly behind the curtains as you'd imagine. There are also some VERY interesting characters that work here - you've got to be someone that is flexible in your work style & can communicate with various personality types.

Pros

We work with geniuses - in every department, We create innovative products that thrill our customers and create new product categories - who else can say that?

Cons

ZERO ZERO ZERO work/life balance. Execs have been saying for YEARS that they understand and will make it better. But in actuality, it gets worse every year! It is obviously top management LIP SERVICE because if they meant it, they could fix it tomorrow. They have hundreds of BILLIONS in the bank. If they REALLY cared about employee work/life balance, they could bring aboard the right number of folks to make that issue dissolve. Sick of hearing the lies. Just don't lie about wanting to fix it, when they clearly DON'T care
