Pros

Compensation. They pay well. But the bullsh#t isn't worth the pay. I could deal with it for about a year. Was just killing time after that till my options vested and then got out. Terrible place to work.

Cons

Politics. Lots of it. Backstabbing. Lots of it. Lots of egos that think that they're gods gift to the world. That's what created the dot-com boom/bust and that's what will do in this company. It's just software people... get a grip. They like to hire contractors to "shadow" full-time people and threaten to replace you with the contractor if you didn't do exactly what they want.

Pros

Agressive, smart, well-organized R&D department. Clear technology-wide priotiziation of projects (at least with the recent reorg). Corporate goals are also extremely clear. All employees are required to map their yearly goals to their manager who maps to their manager, all the way up to the CEO. The Foundation makes you feel like you're not just working for another greedy tech company. Extreme passion throughout the entire company about what we do. CEO is a great leader and a brilliant marketer. Downtown SF location.

Cons

Long commute if you don't live in SF. Can be really stressful because of the intensity and passion of everyone working there.
