Pros

Artificial Intelligence Scientists were super smart and fun to work with. Learned a ton.

Cons

Shifted strategies a couple times. May have been worthwhile to see how certain ones played out before shifting again.

Pros

+ Highest pay around. + Free meals & food, transportation, housing, gym access, car sharing. + Access to the brightest minds in the industry. + Chance to work on real, production code that will be used while you still work there.

Cons

Honestly, I have had nothing but a good experience working here.

Pros

Great Co-founders really set the tone of excellence through humility. Lots of young, hungry, smart people work here and that's a great thing. Everyday is a learning experience. I love my job and look forward to coming in every day. People around me always work hard so that pushes me to do the same. After work there is always someone with something going on, which is great and helps build the important team spirit.

Cons

Middle management across the company could use some training/work but processes have been put into place. Salaries/options were low across the board (but that doesn't matter too much with the acquisition now). The youthfulness of the staff can also lead to some immature handling of inter-office situations but this isn't all that common.
