      Pros

      Great culture, beautiful work space and amazing benefits such as unlimited vacation. Focus on personal growth which makes this a great place to start your career.

      Cons

      Fast paced work environment can make for long hours and a tough work life balance. Large gaps between pay raises and/or promotions.

      Fast pace, smart caring team, and lots of opportunity

      Pros

      You'll work hard, but the payoffs are many. The company is growing really fast, all employees are shareholders, leaders do a good job of communicating our roadmap, and there are a lot of opportunities for advancement. The benefits are great and management allows flexibility (work from home, extended time off) when business needs allow for it. More than anything though, I'm here for the team. Those around me genuinely care about each other and their work product. They are smart, driven, and want to do an excellent job not just to benefit themselves and the company, but to lift up our clients and their own team members.

      Cons

      The company is driving hard and moving fast towards big goals. While this can be exciting and offer rewarding challenges, sometimes it can be stressful and chaotic.

      Great people, overall are really trying to make it good but sometimes questionable leadership and lose sight

      Pros

      The people are overall pretty amazing, motivated, positive, fun to be around. A leading industry which is exciting to be at the forefront of, a great opportunity to learn and grow skillset re:internet/web technology. Nice office with start-up culture perks like ping-pong, snacks,lunches,etc. Most people care a whole lot about culture and the clients, at least at lower levels. Competitive healthcare and PTO offerings.

      Cons

      Questionable leadership promotion and hiring decisions at times which creates a very negative impact. Lack of career pathing and promotions are typically minimal in terms of compensation increase. Change is inevitable/OK but sometimes is not logical. Supposed to smile and "roll with change" even if it does not benefit the employees. Long hours to hit goals, work-life balance can be a challenge.
