Pros

Loved most of the folks I worked with. Compensation was pretty good. Great upward mobility if you are ready to take on an insane amount of responsibility (work) with vey little ability to actually accomplish stuff. Work life balance in Seattle office is incredible. Can't speak for other offices.

Cons

Depends what products you are working on, but generally more sales obligations than engineers to solve problems. Overleveraged. Great demos but no real experience building and releasing a great product with mass-market applications. Very tough competitive positioning with respect to Google, Yahoo, etc, if the company is unwilling to invest in R&D. Culture is a little stale as there are a lot of lifers. Very risk averse. CEO is overpaid.

Pros

The company offers excellent training and a thorough onboarding process, helping new hires feel well-prepared and confident. The small, close-knit teams foster a collaborative and supportive work environment where you never feel lost in the crowd. Employees take pride in the innovative technology and software being developed, which is recognized as impactful within the industry. (Note: The company was acquired by Microsoft to bring potential for future growth.)

Cons

While the company excels in many areas, there’s limited upward mobility, especially in certain career paths, which can be frustrating for those seeking advancement. Additionally, feedback from employees often feels like it’s not taken seriously, which can lead to disengagement when trying to influence change or improve processes.
