Pros

Great pay. Bonuses are fat for the first 2 years. Stocks are really big when you hit the 3 or 4th year mark.

Cons

Who knows if you'll stay to hit past 2 years to get all your stocks. PIP culture is real here and there are MANY toxic managers. The environment in general is competitive built on fear of being the lowest performing member on your team and put up for PIP. You could be performing well but if everyone else on your team is "better" than you, you'd still be up for PIP.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
