      Great Environment, too much power to inexperienced people managers

      Pros

      Perks, Food, Offices, Great People on average, good benefits, great products, innovation everywhere you look,

      Cons

      Bad managers can ruin your experience (as it's the case everywhere). People management initial layer is often chosen by wrong reasons. Thus these folks can't effective lead, and teams end up avoiding taking risks and innovating.

      Great company to work for, but it's not without its flaws

      Pros

      Great work environment, flexibility around your work location and hours (depending your role and manager of course), amazing teammates, and good compensation.

      Cons

      Promotion and internal mobility are extremely difficult. It's very restrictive system attempts to preserve the integrity of a honest performance reviews but ends up ranking employees in what sometimes could end up in an unfair evaluation. Think of it like a curved grading system in high school or college.

      Pros

      Work with some of the smarter people in the world, get excellent compensation, and a lot of benefits.

      Cons

      It is a big company. Probably the best one in history, but still a big company.
