Pros

- Most of the people happen to be nice and fun to work with - The office is nice too, and in another few years the rooftop deck might be accessible

Cons

- If you're looking for stability and job security, stay far away, this is as volatile of a business as I've ever come across (multiple people laid off after starting less than 6 months prior) - Nonexistent onboarding process after hire lots of ambiguity about what my roles/responsibilities would be - Often times neglected immediately after start date, made it very difficult to learn and grow into an integral member of the team and didn't feel empowered in any way - Extreme cynicism and negativity amongst majority of employees that I didn't buy into at first, but realized over time that those people knew exactly what they were talking about - Many more sayers than there are doers - Too many cooks in the kitchen - No defined company-wide mission, lots of different agendas competing against one another for attention - So many pointless and obstructive meetings that produce nothing but a waste of time and resources

Pros

office is nice, good benefits

Cons

this company is a sinking ship. its values have changed from a good product and happy employees to we will do anything at all to stay relevant. sports betting is a depleting business. FanDuel let go over 500 people in one day and proceeded to have a massive ad event and paid for peoples subway rides with knicks alum and merch and everything...on the same. exact. day. They do not care about you and they will get rid of anyone. I would not recommend anyone work here unless maybe you just graduated and are looking for experience. We just got rid of our CEO and our CPO is leaving as well as several other high level employees because there is no saving this ship. jump off now is my advice.
