Unfortunately a bad pattern emerged

Pros

Great benefits. Really good compensation. Beautiful campus and generally nice people - for the most part. Relative automonomy given to teams that can be good for a while.

Cons

I wish the company practiced what it preached. The feedback culture seems great when it is sold to you as a candidate but once you are immersed it becomes suffocating and paralyzing. Meetings are a constant. Meetings about meetings. Discussions about doing without ever having time to do. The games during work sound great but make focus very difficult. Add in the open "no office" environment and it is not a surprise that things take forever to complete.

Things are slow, Management isn't the best

Pros

If you like to play games and work a lot, you'll love the office. Lots of people play games and work most of the day, eating every meal at the office.

Cons

Engineering Managers seem to be hit or miss. I met some great managers there, and they taught me a lot, but mine was very difficult to work with. Also, little things can take a long time because of all the safeguards the company has in place to protect data-centers and code. If you're used to the slow pace of that, then it's fine, but I wasn't a fan.

Hard work for little pay

Pros

Fully stock kitchen, able to play games during the work day, free meals daily and other fun activities

Cons

Very very "clicky". If you're not part of a click, people talk rumors about you and look down on you.
