Pros

Huge chance to make meaningful changes to the user base. Exciting problems to solve and a chance to do it at scale.

Cons

Fairly difficult to understand the intricacies of the economics of the ecosystem. It makes it a little complicated to know how to add value effectively.

Trust, Autonomy, Respect

Pros

There's a lot of trust at FanDuel and that allows me to be flexible with my time and not worry about core office hours. I also get a lot of autonomy afforded to me in my role so I can be pragmatic in getting the job done. The people are fantastic as are the learning and development opportunities. What I value the most is the collective drive. People work hard and are driven by creating fantastic products that our users love. The perks don't hurt either: * Uncappoed annual leave * Encouraged to attend industry conferences * Good pension * Stock options * Great offices

Cons

It's very fast paced with shifting priorities. This may not be a con to some but if you rely on process rather than thinking on your feet you might find it a hard environment to adapt to.

Pros

The culture has always been to try to do the right thing, within the limitations of reality. There is a strong push to eliminate technical debt, and to empower employees to use their own initiative to do things well and improve things without having to get sign-off by management. Company offers a great working environment in terms of both the physical office and the freedom to work from home as and when it suits you.

Cons

There have been tough times recently, with a fair bit of belt-tightening due to the wave of legislation sweeping the US states. Things seem to be getting better again, and the recent New York legislation going in our favour feels to have been a sea change in the difficult legal landscape that we've seen since the end of 2015. Prior to that, we experienced serious growing pains as we struggled to recruit a huge number of new people to fill all the work we needed to get done.
