Pros

- Excellent Senior leadership. Jeff and Mike do a great job of communicating where the company is and where its going. - The vision is inspiring. Creating economic opportunity for the world's 3 billion workers. - Really nice peer-to-peer skill building opportunities. - Monthly hackdays keep the start-up spirit alive even as we grow to 4k+ employees

Cons

- This is a title poor company. Most of my MBA cohort outside LinkedIn are at the Director/VP level. I'm in a comparable job here and am a Manager. Titles aren't a big deal to me, but I have heard that the lower perception hurts employees when they leave the company.

Pros

Excellent company to work for. Free lunches and dinners that are of very high quality - even better than most restaurants around here. On-site gym with instructor-led classes, hack days, incubator program are all part of the fun culture.

Cons

Too much politics for a company of its size. Promotions are slow (non-existant), especially for Software Engineers in Test. The company did not even have a career progression profile for these position until recently! Health insurance is so-so at best. High premiums, and low coverage. Also, there is no stock rewards at year-end review, unless you are in senior leadership role. That's shocking given that all the companies competing for talent here gives stock rewards to its employee rank-and-file.

Pros

* awesome work culture * awesome facilities: Free food,confectioneries,free cab,free mobile phones(handset and connection) and free internet connections(data cards) * Recreational events at least twice a month. * Really good salary scale * But the best part is the appreciation and recognition of the hard work of employees by the senior management.

Cons

* Some particular individuals in the Bangalore carry out factionalism and form cliques. * There should be a better system of listening to and reacting on employee complaints.
