Pros

Love the environment, the energy, the teams.

Cons

Addition of layers makes it tough to get creative ideas pushed out. Definitely not the start up feel that it once had. Plus with the fast growth, the infrastructure can be frustrating as it hasn't caught up to company's demands/size.

Pros

You're part of a game changer in cloud computing. All doors are open. Excellent products and execution. Talented and smart colleagues. Salary in line with the software industry.

Cons

Company is growing and increasingly slow. Decisions are mulled over for months only to be changed quickly after implementation. Middle management layers seem confused and demotivated. Silos across the company prevent innovation. No career development.
