      Pros

      Satisfying to work at a place where even if you're not doing the work on the ground, the work you do enables it in some way.

      Cons

      There is a fine line between pride of enabling good work and arrogance. There seems to be quite a bit of the latter and that was disappointing.

      Pros

      You will never work with a more talented and accomplished group of peers who share a deep commitment to a common goal. There are amazing people here.

      Cons

      The organizational and management culture is challenging: a self-imposed emphasis on speed with rapid cycles of rethinking seem, in some strategies at least, to result in lots of false starts. On the team I joined, we had a very high turnover rate, especially at the higher levels, which was frustrating.
