Pros

1. Awesome time to join. We are still growing the business, and the team is hiring. A lot of opportunities there :) 2. Opportunity to learn from awesome colleagues.

Cons

1. The food can be better. 2. I feel the management are too nice sometimes, we need to be aggressive cleaning up low performers.

Pros

* Good mentors and opportunity to make impact, even during a short internship. I wrote code that is still in use 2 years later! * Awesome internship program with all the swag/perks/events you expect out of silicon valley * HUGE monetization opportunity with large user growth prospects, too * Challenging work of scaling a product to 100s of millions of users, thousands and thousands of advertisers, billions of unique ideas

Cons

Tech debt and occasional management shuffles slow down the engineering team -> (new head of eng looks like she'll fix these issues) Pre-IPO startup means you trade cash for stock (less liquid) in terms of your compensation
