Pros

Excellent compensation and benefits including free food (virtually all meals) Genuinely earnest and caring company culture The smartest people I have ever worked with Large company with a lot of projects to choose from Opportunities to relocate to other offices (including overseas) Company is not afraid to spend money for employee needs or project benefits Very good technical/material support for employees. Example: A fantastic tech support system where we can get almost immediate attention for IT problems. Easy to order necessary equipment

Cons

Some parts of the company have a frantic work pace to the extent of being permanently stressful Engineering driven company, which is a con in that other job roles need to define and figure out how they fit in the development process User experience especially research is not uniformly baked in the process. I feel I have spent a lot of time explaining to people what I can do for them
