Pros

Software engineers work on global revenue generating applications Engineering team has pretty relaxed attitude towards office hours and dress code Lots of design and architecture freedom given to software engineers Lots of options to work on different technologies

Cons

Product Management is mostly located in Europe Office is nice, but could use a little more style If you expect to lean back and not have to think at work, this is not the place for you

Pros

International, diffrent cultures, few nice people, that's all! I just need to write 20 words here, so I am empty.

Cons

Confused business people focus on how to run the business from today to tomorrow, terrible code, no experience, some dev lead positions without any clear purpose, unclear requirements, one team responsible for production code (teams have no clue when their components are release and if they work), dinosaur technologies, terrible and loud open office, terrible coffee, half of the company does nothing and pretends like it's super busy, people dont accept any technical improvements, reporting your daily work in millions of diffrent tools and many many more.

Fast pace, ever changing environment. Sounds challenging? Think twice.

Pros

Good Location. Other than that, nothing more.

Cons

High turnover rate of employees says it all. Doesn’t know the importance of proper system. Fickle minded management, does not appreciate employees. What I learnt from here is that anyone can be easily replaceable. Directions are ever changing. Despite all these, management sets sky high expectations for performance. Incompetent and inefficiently functioning human resources department definitely reflects the overall state of an organization. Leaves me wonder if this is even an international corporation.
