Pros

Great people, open working environment, really unique culture. A youthful dynamic in the main, which is attractive to many target hires.

Cons

Young culture can in fact be detrimental as the compensation model is targeted around that. Upper management is dominated by EF-ers, i.e. people who play the game and talk the talk.

Pros

Great people, fun, vibrant and energetic

Cons

Extremely secretive company - which confuses people as to what is important information No HR at all so managers are relied on to do the job of supporting career growth etc (which does not always happen) Some weak managers (and people learning to be managers from them) No training or sponsorship Very few benefits aside from one off drinking events a few times a year
