Pros

Groupon, I can at least talk about Palo Alto campus, is a great place to work. I really like my coworkers, the culture, having free snacks and lunch.

Cons

One thing that bothers me is the time off policy. There is no predefined PTO. You may technically take any time off as long as your manager's approve. Though, at the end of the people end up taking less time off.
