Pros

The culture is great in the London office, there's good opportunity for professional growth including encouragement to go to many conferences and to experiment with new technologies and ideas, and some great perks. Many of the developers are incredibly smart.

Cons

The company is focused around the head office in California, to the point where they can't imagine anyone contributing from outside. And there's a very heavy-handed technical leadership who try to micromanage every process of all teams.

Pros

Everyone is very positive and nice. There's a ton of opportunity to make an impact with the scope and scale each employee is responsible for.

Cons

Product strategy seems frantic and directionless at times, although differs between product teams.
