Pros

Very high hiring standards mean that everyone is smart, but without alot of overblown egos. Don't have to carry anyone who doesn't pull their own weight. No idea is rejected based on who comes up with it, even junior engineers and summer interns will be heard. The dedication to volunteering and charitable work across the company is great.

Cons

The pace of development and release cycles is very high. Not much downtime. Decisions are sometimes made very quickly and not explained well.

Pros

It's the least political, most functional, software development environment I've encountered. The whole company is focused on the most important factors for success - communication, efficiency, and the customer. The policy of "no sacred cows" applies to all aspects of the business lending to a culture that is always focused on improving both the product and the processes.

Cons

We work hard and we move our desks too often. Environment-wise, I would love a more open studio feel for the designers. Right now we're all stuck in standard cubes, in straight rows. Something more organic and flexible would be more appealing and inspirational.

Pros

This is only for the tech group - I have no idea how the other departments are run. * Competitive salaries * Fun work atmosphere * Great location * Interesting work topics, even if it is enterprise software * Smart management * Ping pong at work * Good potential for career growth

Cons

* Ridiculous performance review process. This doesn't affect growth potential, it's just a ridiculous headache. * V2MOM - corporate acronym uselessness
