Pros

Some very smart people work here. Breadth of things you can work on is almost infinite.

Cons

Too much politics. People spend more time trying to gain "visibility" than doing actual work. Managers hold too much power over their reports ad can destroy their career.

Pros

Lots of smart people, working on a software platform that affects millions of customers. Fantastic work/life balance and good benefits. More recently becoming a more exciting and faster paced place to work.

Cons

Lack of enthusiasm and passion more often seen in younger companies. Often felt like decisions were more politically driven as opposed to being what's good for the customer. Slightly less pay compared to other elite tech companies these days.
