Pros

Free lunch Great mission (if they really meant it)

Cons

In the few months I have been here this company has deteriorated from an exciting new startup to a tense, disorganized, scam in freefall. I have many years of work experience and I can't believe I fell for their sales pitch hook-line-sinker, but the offer package is sweet so you think they're doing better than they actually are. They layoff people or change direction every week, for no reason. They dumped the 24-member marketing team in December, just before the holidays, and told us it was a one-off change in product strategy. But every week more good people are quietly dismissed, creating an environment of worry, distrust, and chaos. New leadership hires from Amazon have created an every-man-for-himself vibe that have erased the team mentality of employees that started this company. It may appear to look impressive on press releases, but these are all mid-range managers who aren't improving the company.

Pros

- Amazing individual contributors - High turnover means you'll get to work with tons of amazing people, even during your (hopefully) short tenure - People might think you work for Blink Fitness and will ask for workout tips

Cons

- CEO and COO haven't run a tech company before. If you thought they're hire smart people to help them, you'd be half right. They've made some great hires, clashed with them, and pushed them out in short order. They've also made some incredibly poor hires that accelerated the problems. - Extreme drama at all times, stemming from the founders and upper management. - Toxic culture. Leadership using slurs, talking poorly about people with medical conditions, disregard for blatantly lying with marketing and promotional materials. Pretty scary. - Unrealistic expectations - employees were expected to work through holidays to hit arbitrary deadlines or to solve problems caused by leadership thrash or some shiny new idea - Glassdoor manipulation - I saw HR employees discussing how to get negative reviews taken down, or what new employees could be pushed into writing reviews.

Pros

Mission, I get inspired by the lives I am impacting My VP Engg - She is awesome Quality of engineering talent is ridiculously good Salary - Top quartile

Cons

Culture - being turned around nicely but too early to say it's awesome Layoffs - mostly marketing and content but it could have been avoided if they didn't hire so many marketing people to start with Founders - They are very smart but they are hard to talk to as they don’t interact with the rank and file, but clearly have a genius streak. CEO has gotten better at communicating
