Pros

-Great coworkers -Client food -Flexibility -No dress code -Free Parking -Close to highway -Very relaxed interview -They hire people quickly -CEO of company is very visible and engages with recruiters

Cons

-if you don't fit in the clique, you're out. Theres no tolerance for privacy here. Keeping things to yourself is seen as rude. -no proper HR therefor any issues with coworker becomes public knowledge immediately -every employee under the age of 30 is miserable and from the beginning will warn you to get out asap if you can -if you don't share your food with the boss, guess what? Snarky looks abound! -no seperatiion between work and lunch. If you're eating at the table it SHOULD be assumed that it's a lunch break therefor let the work talk take a back seat -no room for growth -they don't pay what they say they will -pothead lead recruiter is very nice to your face but will do anything to prevent anyone with more experience and skills to get any kind of recognition -back of house supervisor and daughter have high positions which make it difficult to seperate boss from HR -no warning if they don't like something. Instant termination without any guidance or reason -while everyone is laid back, chill and makes jokes about each other it can and will be used against you if they need a reason to terminate you -recently saw someone let go because of things that we all do yet no retraining or talk about proper behavior -now we need to walk on eggshells because a person can get moved or fired if a single person with no power (other than being best friends with the bosses) holds your faith in their hands

Pros

You're able to work remote.

Cons

The company is spiraling out of control. There’s a lack of leadership, and efforts to sell to private equity are not going well. Instead of focusing on creating value internally, they are looking externally. The company is heavily reliant on a large number of VP-level staff, with 60% or more of the staff at that level. The rest of the staff is severely underpaid.
