Pros

It's a workplace where you have the opportunity to learn every single day. Audible is not scared to take chances to improve the overall customer experience. Love the test and trial environment because with these experiences we continue to discover and grow. Not to mention working along with some of the brightest is a great opportunity to challenge oneself.

Cons

Although the days are long and there is plenty of work to go around the company acknowledges this and tries hard to balance things out with the introduction of Wellness Days and Flexible Work Schedules.
