Pros

They do tend to pay well, but that is not always a pro. There are some good people there, and the benefits are top notch.

Cons

The company is in a constant Save Our Ship mode. The tech culture is rotten with politics, unless you are lucky enough to have one of the few managers that shelter you from that sort of thing. Few hold the power, and they like it that way, so be prepared to struggle for every worthwhile project, or any domain knowledge.

Pros

Food, great benefits, location, fun in the beginning

Cons

Worthless stock options (they offered more options to be bought back in lieu of a bonus- shouldn't they have wanted these back if they are worth anything?), poor management, execs are more like cult leaders in their need for blind devotion to the "cause" (of which I'm still not clear on), political to the core

Pros

informal dress code, stocked kitchen with hot & cold drinks, fruit, bagels, snacks, etc. video game machines to play during break.

Cons

it a large company nowadays. every one works late hours. sometimes 10 - 12 hrs day. that's great if you dont have a life.
