Pros

It's a great place to learn when you are new and like being thrown into the fire to learn quickly. Stock options are good when you have a senior based position.

Cons

They are always trying to replace good engineers with contractors that are H1B Visa heavy which in the end leads to a lot of poor quality engineers and their solutions shows. Management Doesn't really care about quality, but only releasing new features even if that means more defects to the system
