Pros

as far as .coms goes, its yahoo. Everybody knows the brand, including grandmothers. Some very smart people work there The perks are not bad, free coffee, nice campus with gym, cafeteria, bus to work.

Cons

long commutes for the many people that live in San Francisco. Management and bereaucratic mess where divisions have competing missions. That results in diminishing morale and antagonistic workplace. For example, sales and product are on very different pages, without clear directions from both sides. And of course there are people who shouldn't be there at all, incompetent war mongers who waste precious resources.

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.
