Pros

The technology is great, people are quite smart, the future potential is huge.

Cons

The company has already gown so much that if you are a smart guy and you join now, the growth would be quite slow. The promotions would come very rarely and unpredictably. The company is becoming more and more driven by upper management than by engineers, which used to be the case.

Pros

Lots and lots of very smart people to work with Cutting-edge technology and developers who are, generally, glad to talk about it Loose corporate culture - no need to be pretentious to be respected!

Cons

Can be a politically charged atmosphere Not as glorious as, say, Microsoft. Company by engineers for engineers, for the most part.
