Pros

It all depends on the team you are part of. The work load is nice and perk like espp, 401k and medical benefits are better. But salary is on the low side compare to other seattle companies.

Cons

Politics, some people have lot of ego. Lots of levels. each title have at least 2 levels which sometimes make longer to get to senior even if you are working hard.
