Pros

positive work culture; everyone is genuinely happy about working there, very team oriented/collaborative environment. A unique & fun place to work and diverse culture with a lot of mutual respect and strong employee camaraderie, and very interesting conversation. Great benefits Schedule flexibility Stability and continuous company success & growth Dog friendly Very transparent environment No silo's founders and exec management believe in doing the right thing, are very much in the weeds with everyone else they ensure that you have a comfortable work station to foster efficiency in your role casual dress code good support provided by management Exec management is very approachable competitive salary and options offered Nice location in downtown San Mateo, walking distance to caltrain and tons of restaurants, stores, bars etc are all walking distance.

Cons

If you require a very structured environment to be successful in your role at work, this is probably not the place for you.

Pros

Amazing pay especially when compared to market averages. Workspace feels collaborative and inspiring. Workplace culture is very lively, quirky and familial. A fully profitable startup with minimal investment money makes this a rare breed in the silicon valley startup world. The large growth in the last couple of years inspires a lot of long-term job confidence. Great benefits including a generous fund to outfit your home/office workspace.

Cons

We seem to be outgrowing our current office space. Limited parking options in the surrounding area.
