Pros

Being able to take ownership of huge projects that will have a direct impact on the product. Having passionate coworkers. Being lead by people with an amazing vision for the company/product. Seeing others use the product every day. Working on innovative features. Having lots of responsibilities.

Cons

Having lots of responsibilities means having to work. A LOT. But that's part of the fun.

Pros

One of my favorite things about working at Snapchat is seeing people use the application. I can't remember the last time I was out and didn't see a random person on the street using our application. It's incredibly rewarding to see people use and love the application that you helped create. Also, being a part of a company that is growing quickly also accelerates your learning as you get to see and help to solve the problems that companies face at each stage of growth.

Cons

The biggest con is the stress of the work. A lot is expected of you, and a lot of responsibility is thrust upon you.
