Pros

Interesting work, awesome people. Build relationships that will last a lifetime.

Cons

More like a bunch of small companies than one big company in many ways. Subject to boom-bust cycles. The quality of experience you get depends on circumstances and who you know. Lack of effective performance review with no direct connection to promotions, salary and stock offers. Word of mouth replaces a real system with obvious potential for biases or disconnection from reality.

Pros

Very good technical development sessions. Eight hour work days.

Cons

Salaries are heavily biased towards one ethnicity. Gender bias as well. Sweet talk same work but less exposure and definitely less salary. Also caught when a recruiter sent the same job to personal email. No discussion yet on career goals. Offer letter was rude. Asked for a min 2 yr service requirement for a 5k moving cost. 401k is 50% of employee contribution capped at 6%. 6% is employee contribution . Means Company pays only upto 3%. Have to slog 15 yrs for entry level min to get associate status. No 401k until second yr. No overtime. Claim flat structure but no involvement in technical meetings where stamping needs to be done by the said engineer.
