Pros

-Fully covered health insurance through United for employee -Free snacks in the office -Lunch provided daily That's it.

Cons

The most toxic and unsupportive environment I've ever worked in. Management, HR, and leadership from the top down are all extremely problematic and biased. Tons of politics to deal with that no one has time for. They will micromanage you, force you to be in office 5 days/week and treat you terribly. They fire people that don't fit in to their fraternity/sorority vibe they have going on. Total "boys club" where sexual harassment, racism, and homophobic behavior runs rampant. Very unprofessional work environment. No flexibility on working hours or working from home. They will lie about how much money you will make - if you get a bad territory through no fault of your own they will fire you. They continue raising quotas but cutting territory smaller and smaller making it impossible to hit quota. They will lie to get you in the door. Trust me, it is NOT worth it. Even the equity they promise is not what they say it is. There are so many better tech start-up opportunities out there and this is not one of them. Do yourself a favor and don't waste your time.

Pros

Some of the people are kind, intelligent, and very thoughtful, which made the rest manageable when it unbearable Fancy perks: food, coffee bar

Cons

This is the worst company I have ever worked for. Inexperienced leadership and middle management creates an air of stress, anxiety, and frustration across all areas of the workplace. People often snap at each other, burn out, and successes are rarely recognized or celebrated. There is no sense of team unity. I even witnessed a monkey being brought into the office to be posed for photos during an end of quarter celebration. There is little flexibility for people not being in-office due to family/outside issues. There are too many meetings with no clear organization or purpose, and messages/emails are often sent late into the night, on holidays, and on weekends. I wish someone had warned me not to work here before I started, it was some of the worst days of my life.
