Pros

You will make an impact as soon as you set foot through the door. Everyone I work with is very smart and approachable.The company is focusing on standardizing and simplifying its platform(s) which is an amazingly exciting time to be here for those that like to be part of a redesign. Those that can self manage and collaborate well will have an amazing career.

Cons

Because everyone is so smart and able it is almost assumed that you will be attempting to reinvent the wheel to get your project off the ground but the result is a plethora of home-grown tools and services.

Pros

High level of talent - the firm is filled with smart people High level of impact - the projects we take on are meaningful Interesting work - you will have the opportunity to be creative & take on interesting challenges Autonomy applies to work life balance - you are responsible for creating value, not for putting in long hours

Cons

It's up to you to determine how to contribute to the success of the firm, since you are given autonomy. This can be con, if you require direction to succeed.

Pros

Good vision from management. Engineering focused on quick experimentation to prove feasibility followed by judicious hardening and iteration. Excellent co-workers. Absurd perks.

Cons

Management has good expectations of what can be achieved in a reasonable workweek, holds employees to what is reasonable, but talks expectations as if much more is possible. Inbox zero adherents may be disappointed.
