Pros

Really good people, it's a joy to work with of the professionals here; Lots of benefits; Great brand to work for; Great culture, the company heavily invests on its employees; If you know the right people, good chances to transfer to other offices, including visa sponsorships; The product is awesome.

Cons

Office politics will take you further than good results; On the way to becoming a corporate behemoth like all the others - massive increase in bureaucracy and bs; Unrealistic sales targets and saturated markets and huge pressure; "Open, honest and constructive feedback" as long as doesn't go against whatever buzzwords are trending at a certain given time; Poor middle management, some have no idea what they are doing, they were successful sales reps but that doesn't mean they are good fits to be a manager.

Pros

Benefits, pay, stock, cafe, professional pics, IT reachable on site

Cons

There have been a number of job reductions as a result of the Microsoft acquisition. It is sad to see many great people leave. We have had turnover in finance, legal, hr since this happened. We've also lost a number of engineers. Not as exciting as it was under Jeff solely. Things have changed.

Pros

- Some of the smartest people I've worked with at every level, in every job function. People are motivated. - Amazing benefits, treats employees like gold - Always moving and changing things up (though at differing paces; may be pro and con) - Has come a long way in undoing legacy bad practices from its startup days

Cons

- Middle management is filled with kool-aid drinking sycophants - Incompetence gets rewarded while real talent is often overlooked because there's minimal accountability (see: employees are gold) - Some deadweight projects, teams and employees from earlier years staying around even though they contribute very little
