Pros

Snacks, nice office, good view of NYC, nice people, fun events, lots of parties, quality t-shirts, cute logo. Great place to party, not so great for work.

Cons

Inexperienced managers make work miserable. Seriously. As teams grow they pick managers by figuring out who has been here the longest. Managers don’t listen or manage. Managers are mostly skilled at kissing up or masking problems. Lots of grumbling under the surface now. Seems like a crisis is brewing but nobody notices because of insane growth and fun team outings. Several new people have said to me that they thought their jobs would be different based on the interview but now they’re confused and worried.
