- A lot of attention to software quality - Tight-knit teams - Fantastic office space: location, decor, snacks, near AT&T Park - Typically there's not a lot of ego

Cons

- Product development is *slow* because of over-engineering - Some teams too "clique-y" - Not enough transparency - Very little cross-departmental collaboration - Lack of ethnic diversity in general - Spotty gender diversity in some departments - Too slow to take action on low performers - Lots of meetings, even for individual contributors

Nones have nothing to put here.
