Avantages

* Learn from the best * Plenty of opportunity to move around - (If you last long enough) * Decent to Good Compensation - (but maybe not so much if you divide by the number of hours you work.) * Compensation is good related to cost of living in Seattle

Inconvénients

* No work life balance. Working long hours, 12 plus a day, is common and a badge of honor. * Working holidays and weekends is common - especially Thanksgiving and Christmas - but ofcourse this is a commerce company. * Turnover rate is pretty high. Average employee lasts 1.5 years * Lots of burnt-out employees. * "It is what it is" is a common phrase heard around the company when asking employees if they like the long hours. * Very competitive work culture. Lots of nice people but most don't have much time to give guidance. * Bad documentation and little training make it difficult to get up to speed. Be prepared to have lots of work and responsibility thrown at you from day one. * Culture of frugality means little investment in employee training and perks. *

Avantages

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.

Inconvénients

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.
