Pros

Fast growing company Opportunity for advancement (for certain personalities) Excellent compensation Interesting technology Good business (not technical) management

Kontras

Unrealistic deadlines lead to sloppy development practices. This leads to higher than necessary operational burden. Conflicting goals - why didn't you get this done on time? Because I was up all night fixing an operational problem. "You need to work harder" - I was up for over 20 hours straight, I need sleep. "You will be terminated if you don't step it up" - Huh? A 20 hour day isn't enough. No respect for simple human factors. If you need to sleep, don't work here.

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.
