Pros

Fun coworkers, lively environment and great perks pre-IPO

Cons

Incredibly low pay, constant layoffs, regular changes to policies and the way teams are set up and work, changes to benefits packages and changes to in-office versus work from home policies. If you are looking for stability this is not the place. I watched as loyal, hard working tenured employees of 5-8 years were laid off year after year. They would say this was the last round of layoffs and 4 months later another team would be eliminated. Our beneifts package changed several times making it impossible to have a solid financial plan. They value profitability over people and it's a shame because at the beginning it was a wonderful place to work.
