Pros

The people here really care about the company's mission, the product, and its users. Great perks (pretty standard for SF tech but great nonetheless) and a great office. The company is small enough to make an impact as an individual, and there are lots of opportunities to advance, transition roles, or learn new skills within the company.

Cons

The topic of brain training is still very controversial, so some bumps in the road are to be expected. Recent changes and lack of growth have led to decreased morale and increased employee turnover.
