Pros

Still experiencing good growth in terms of everything. Extremely liberal culture. Much faster getting things done comparing to some big corporations. IPO prospect looks good.

Cons

Growth not as great as a few years back. Bureaucracy is starting to build up. A- people hiring B people and B people hiring B- people. IPO is always "2 years down the road".

Pros

I no longer have to see my pretentious and cult-like coworkers every weekday.

Cons

This is a cult. You either want to move to Jonestown or not.

Pros

The folks in product are fantastic, there are great internal tools, and amazing benefits/amenities. This is a great place to work over all.

Cons

The focus on company culture is somewhat heavy handed and silly. Negative feedback is uncommon, allowing for dumb decisions too be made uncontested in many parts of the company and for entire sections to under perform. I think designers are given too much sway over product.
