Pros

--Very passionate, hardworking employees. No slackers here! --The company employs many industry experts --CEO is very approachable and supportive of employees and teams --Very likely going to be a game changer in the digital imagine industry --Great "open", no cubicle office environment --Laid-back dress code --Free daily catered lunches

Cons

--There seems to be an overall issue with interdepartmental upper management alignment. --Work-life balance is a big challege. Everyone seems to work 18hrs/day , 7 days a week...no joke. --Workload is massive and with so many fast moving parts, you can find yourself buried many layers deep very quickly. --Fairly clicky workplace

Pros

Experienced, competent engineers who know how to collaborate. Good allocation of resources, plenty of open space, lots of IT support, boatloads of snacks, and decent benefits.

Cons

Lytro is still a start-up, so it is not without some risk.
