Pros

The culture is fun and everyone I have encountered has been helpful. There is a lot of growth and opportunity.

Cons

I have not see any cons at this point. The closest to a con is how busy it can be but that is an opportunity to help build and improve processes.

Toxic Management is Protected Here

Pros

Really great non-management people @ the company Not a ton of industry standard benefits but base pay is ok Depending upon your role, it's possible to have good or terrible work life balance - mine is currently ok

Cons

Toxic managers are protected and shuffled around - think Catholic Church style Heard it's different on different teams - not all managers, etc - but depending on where you land, it's very possible to be on a team or with a manager that governs through fear, intimidation and the projection of constant disappointment Generally don't see people promoted within the company (unless you're C-Suite) - lots of outside hires for VP and Director positions - not always, but often people who don't have great context or the necessary technical knowledge or experience Do you enjoy being pitted against your co-workers for managerial approval, do you crave castigation for things outside of your control, do you yearn to be quizzed constantly about your competence - apply today!
