Pros

-Casual dress code -great 401K & health benefits -flexible work hours -ability to take a day off when needed -friendly people

Cons

-Under paid & over worked, which is why they have such a young workforce they can pay whatever they feel. -You quickly realize that it's a job not a career -No career development whatsoever, short of someone leaving it is difficult to move up -You can remain in the same position for years and your salary will be the same -Laid back attitude manages to permeate it's way into everything including everyday processes making it difficult to get things done and putting client needs at risk -Wasteful spending on things the company does not need and as a result the workforce suffers

Pros

Great benefits (e.g. 6% of salary 401K matching program, 6-week sabbatical after working 4 years). Good opportunities to switch roles within company. Most employees are great to work with.

Cons

Slightly lower pay relative to other companies. Management might be on a course of changing strategies across orgs too quickly, resulting in too many things breaking and failed outcomes. Removed 3 days a week in-office policy, which may lead to missed talent acquisition opportunities.
