Pros

- Founders and senior level management are approachable and very friendly - Casual, laid back atmosphere - Friendly coworkers, everyone helps each other out - Company cohesiveness is valued and promoted

Cons

- per previous review, company in awkward growing stage at time of departure - long and drawn-out temporary status before becoming permanent employee - lots of micromanagement that can be very limiting to one's capability - flexibility at minimum - high performance wasn't rewarded, especially when compared to coworkers who performed more poorly but were paid the same

Pros

I work with diverse and supportive people. Teams and leaders demonstrate the will to respond to worker needs with kindness and respect. On the operational level, teams are highly flexible and adapt quickly to changes when provided proper support. Work-life balance is high priority for the people I interact with.

Cons

The company has difficulty holding on to talent in tech fields since a good chunk of the focus has to be allocated to art/design and production instead. CEOs come and go every few years, leading to instability. For some teams, the process remains overly complex and inefficient because of misalignments between leadership/engineering and ops team users. No formal humanist policy around AI & robotics yet.
