Truly magical, but it can be a bit stressful

Pros

Incredibly smart, dedicated people working on amazing problems. Out of this world perks (if that excites you). Free food, snacks, dog-friendly, massages, etc you name it. And the opportunity to work with the most powerful data tools in the world!

Cons

A bit chaotic with some pockets of unhealthiness. In a tradeoff for simplicity the organization is becoming more top down. You have less freedom to pick projects and transfers are becoming more difficult, and they were hard to beging with. You are measured by a perf cycle every quarter.

Perks and colleagues are amazing, after a few years of success you can work on some of the best problems in the world.

Cons

Easy to get caught up in bureaucracy. Not being based in California can be an issue.
