Pros

One of the main reasons I enjoy working for Netflix is that hard work and dedication are recognized and encouraged. I have always been self-motivated and dedicated to doing the best job possible. With previous employers, this has gone unnoticed and politics got in the way of career advancement.This is not the case with Netflix.

Cons

You cannot come to work and have a "lazy day. You must be willing to give it your all each and every day. I personally don't feel that this is much of a con. However, there are days where there is not enough time in the day to get everything you wanted accomplished.

It's a job, but only just that.

Pros

No reason to work there unless you are a masochist. You can earn the same money selling vacuum cleaners.

Cons

Where do I start? No respect for employees. No vacation time. No sick leave. No consistency. No defending yourself. No dialogue. No sense of reason. No rules for managers, supervisors or "teachers pets". "Career Advancement" practically guarantees you'll be fired. This is an awful, oppressive, fearful, negative and pitiful place to work. Seriously, go to Burger King or Walmart because they'll treat you better. For the "good wage (cough)" you'll end up with ulcers and a need to explain why you were fired to your next employer.
