Pros

It is not impossible to be promoted from within the company. I loved my team. People were caring and smart. Great benefits package. 401k. Laid back atmosphere. Learned a LOT.

Cons

Felt a bit bro-y at times. In the earlier days, the office wasn't very organized and desk space was tight. Open office layout led to pretty loud office at times. The neighborhood is sketchy at night.

Pros

There are a lot of great things about working at CrowdFlower: The people are very talented and friendly. We all share an intrinsic motivation to do better in the world. The benefit package and perks are unbelievable. There is opportunity for growth. They want their employees to learn as much as possible. We work in a wide range of industry types so there is an opportunity to learn a lot about a wide range of businesses. I feel very lucky to work here.

Cons

No real complaints about working here. Work hard, be clear about your goals and the company will help you accomplish them.

Pros

People are very fun Easy to move between departments from the entry-level position Constant updates on the state of the company from senior mgmt Easy to build on skills that you want to strengthen Awesome perks: cash towards wellness programs, catered food to work Trial by fire environment allows you to use your unique problem solving approach - there a million ways to do things, so do it how it works for you! Environment allows you to be social or studious - you won't go crazy! : )

Cons

Work/Life balance can be difficult to maintain (typical of start-up). Know when to take a day off! It can be difficult to get a personal review of your career progress and track for the company I still don't have a description of what my position is and its track - so this makes it difficult to see where I will be in the future
