Pros

Enjoyed the technology and the problem domain. The people are great. Everyone works their heart out. Flexible telecommute policy allows for fluid scheduling. This creates a good work/life balance for those who can manage it. Best 401k program, good compensation package. Good tuition reimbutsement for ongoing training.

Cons

Poor employee support. Extremely competitive. Low raises, no promotions, no career opportunity unless you are a top 1% performer. Even top 10% do not get promoted or get good raises (between 2-3% is considered good). If you get a top review, you can still be RIF'd in 8 months. There is no connection between perforfmance and ongoing employment. They paid 110% bonus in 2014 and lost the greatest number of people to RIFs.
