Breath of fresh air

Hardware engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Unlimited access to advanced technology toolsets. Flat organizational structure. Rewards and opportunities appear to be tightly aligned with a meritocratic philosophy (this is the 'breath of fresh air' for me. Highly intelligent peer group, with much fewer ego issues than I would have expected. Leadership is in the top 10% in my experience. 'No holds barred' approach to improving productivity. Very well organized support structure for a smaller company.

Cons

Poised to grow past the critical 500 head-count trip point that challenges most small companies. Maintaining the very positive culture will be critical to success as many new hires are brought in.

Good company, but experience varies widely depending on the group one is in.

Business Outlook

Pros

Good people, generous pay & benefits, lack of hierarchy, state-of-the-art infrastructure

Cons

If you don't make it into one of the top groups your ride will be a rough one. As in many places, workload can be enormous. There's a caste system of sorts separating the programmers from traders and other analysts. It's not the best place to learn about the business since the groups don't collaborate with one another.
