Pros
Quantcast is led by a CEO with proven track history of success. The company has retained its relatively flat structure, resulting in approachable management and timely decision-making process. The company has industry-leading technology and continues to grow its intellectual property portfolio. As a startup, there are many opportunities to roll up your sleeves, try different things and work collaboratively with various teams. Individual contributions are transparent/tangible. The engineers are friendly, social and can work well with non-technical staff. Catered lunches and dinners are a definite plus.
Cons
Although a secondary factor in accepting a position with the company, salary and benefits are not as competitive as other companies/startups I have worked for. That said, I expect this to change as the company grows and becomes even more profitable. The recruiting team is solid but there is lack of HR presence.
