Pros

Twitter is very open and transparent inside the company, with little friction caused by bureaucratic nonsense. From my first day I've been able to make big changes to the code base and deploy these changes to production. It has been relatively easy to work with coworkers across teams to complete broader projects. I've always felt compensated fairly for the work I do, and I've never felt the need to consistently work long days.

Cons

It's in an interesting state as it has been making its transition from small start up to big company, and many internal processes have not scaled. Twitter is developing corporate infrastructure to preserve it's culture at scale, but it's not quite there yet.

Pros

- Where else can you work that sparks revolutions? - Very smart coworkers - Great executive team, especially CEO - Strong, positive culture - Technology focused, but with awesome design - Strong new hire and ongoing training

Cons

- some working environments can be a bit noisy due to open floor plan - strong hiring the past year has created some unevenness and management pain that needs to be worked out

Pros

Awesome culture, great friendly coworkers and management, awesome benefits. Hack weeks every quarter, food is great, location is awesome as well.

Cons

Grew (and growing) way too fast, a few bad eggs in mid management, some teams are given much higher priority over others, very slow to fire problem employees. Entitlement amongst a small vocal minority. Some employees have poor soft skills.
