Pros

- exceptional growth opportunity. Better that joining Facebook before it went public - very interesting engineering problems to solve. It doesn’t feel like you’ll be fixing some small button on a web site. - better overall compensation package than at Google/Facebook/Apple - feels like we are just starting to grow world wide

Cons

- people coming from other companies often get higher ranking that some long timers at the company, while they clearly are not even at the level. Seems like long timers will be moving on because of that

Pros

Total compensation is top of the market. Good benefits, matching 401k, free DEXA scans, nice HQ.

Cons

Chaotic management. Violatile stock price, one year you can make a lot of money with your RSUs, the next year its all worthless. Progression is hard, on paper they have a standardized rubric for leveling engineers but when it comes to calibration that's when the gaslighting and the caveat starts.
