Freedom and responsibility. Figure out what you need to get done, and do that. Time off flexibility that matches work requirement flexibility Insanely great management Fantastic peers All traction, no friction

Cons

So-so benefits Absolutely horrific stock option plan (fantastic combination of byzantine with low profit potential) Want work/life balance? You'll have to make it happen -- because Netflix won't help :)
