Pros

- Be ready to impressed with most of your coworkers. Most are rockstars! - Great surroundings and environment - Top notch equipment to work with - Consistent changes (usually for better) -- but can be a "con" too.

Cons

- Minimal opportunities for advancement - High Turnover - If you don't like change, you won't like the regular re-orgs (staff changes)

Pros

Lack of politics, hard problems to tackle, extremely bright colleagues, lack of bureaucracy, "context, not control" style of management, no tracking of hours or time off, flexible work options, Netflix is extremely successful as a company, and it's a fun business to be in and win at.

Cons

Always way more to do than people to do the work, but I've never had a job where this wasn't the case. Also, sometimes hard to find the boundaries between family and work life, because there is no tracking of work hours. Many of the folks in my area are highly self-motivated, which fosters a self-imposed culture of working nights and weekends.

Great for people, good for career.

Pros

The culture lets you work on things without someone breathing down your neck. THe perks are fantastic, and the people that are hired tend to be good people fits before good techncal fits. It is not just a good place to pass the time - people ask and care how your weekend was. The culture is a good mix of 30-something humor. Expertise is valued. The digs are classy.

Cons

You can tend to get isolated in your own little world. Decision making and prioritizing is taken away from the engineers. A high value is placed on harmony and working well with other people.
