Pros

Rock solid core business. Exceptional growth and cool projects all around. Good middle management and excellent Senior/Top management. Smart SDEs all around.

Kontras

Oncall system. SDEs are asked to carry on the pager in an oncall rotation. Depending on the team your are can be OK or truly a nightmare. Nightly call if you work with an Indian team and live in Seattle. Scrum is heavily adopted and keep the peace very very high and intense. Happens that the projects are more workarounds than real fully designed solutions as there is no time to focus on the solution. Scrum makes the due date your enemy.

Pros

Medical/ dental/ vision insurance, mental assistance, 401k, lawyer assistance, Career choice, VTO, PTO, vacation time

Kontras

Most AMs have avoritism among employees. We get mandatory extra time (now is calling "voluntary" but you have to go when it is schedule) at the end of the year, what makes difficult for some of us when we have kids and they're really rigid about it.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Kontras

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
