Pros

Some people in the department were nice and friendly.

Cons

Poor work/life balance, people were scared of owners that would come through the floor, no trust in employees and no transparency. Felt like you had to constantly be on your guard - or else. Also some of the worst management I've ever experienced.

Pros

-Free gym -free parking -discounted onsite clothing store

Cons

-Poor benefits (healthcare deducts from pay, 401k plan barely gets any matching) -Little to no perks (no free snacks or food, no free coffee, no good food within walking distance of its sketchy neighborhood) -Pay is not very competitive nor negotiable -Little room for upward mobility -Nonexistant work life balance depending on your department -Taking PTO is highly discouraged and frowned upon (old-school mentality where sitting there twiddling with your thumbs makes you look better as an employee than actually being productive and managing your time/work-life balance well. The concept of working from home doesn't exist in their knowledge base) -Everyone is scared out of their mind when around Paul the founder, creating a very fake and toxic environment where you can get thrown under the bus for making a mistake. Your managers will not stand up for you because they don't want to lose their jobs doing so.
