Pros

Throughout, received very generous raises and RSUs, even during the tough economic times. Upper management is fiercely loyal and respectful towards folks that give 200% to the company. Bottomline if you take the initiative and grab responsibilities there is no shortage of opportunities. Most folks in my group love and respect their Managers/Directors/Vice President.

Cons

Some parts of the company still suffer from startup culture. Documentation is poor and newcomers struggle a lot. Not for the faint hearted, very aggressive and fast moving place with virtually no hand holding.

Pros

Fun atmosphere, and everyone was very friendly. I was often invite to lunches/Dinner with middle management and they tried to make sure that I was satisfied with my job. The hours were very flexible.

Cons

The compensation package is nothing to brag about. And many times I spent my weekends on promotional events. Also, you don't really get paid for overtime.
