Pros

Solving really tough problems for some of the worlds largest companies Some of the brightest people I’ve ever worked with Incredible culture built on significant transparency and accountability Absolute rocket ship Truly data-driven Opportunities for significant career growth across the globe Phenomenal perks (benefits, lunches, gym subsidies)

Cons

Historical underinvestment in back office functions (especially People org), but making massive progress with recent hires Massive growth means constant change, but that’s the nature of growth of this scale Office space needs some love
