Pros

Very interesting projects and people of all backgrounds. Great location, semi close to BART

Cons

No focus on research: no push to present, or attend conferences; use old technology to run analysis; managers follow the money and not their passion The majority of people do not want to take the time and teach you their skills. No room for growth, and it feels like you are on your own-everyone is out for themselves. No culture at all.
