Pros
The people and the mission.
Cons
As one previous reviewer stated, I would think twice about working for this company. I worked here for many years and can say with a certain degree of authority that it's highly dysfunctional—undoubtedly the worst company I have ever worked for. The people are great for sure, but good talent is wasted. People are seen as a cheap commodity, and are not rewarded monetarily or otherwise, so the good ones eventually move on. Overall the morale is exceptionally low as a result. Upper management (above Director level) have no clear guidance or direction, and even good managers have no power to fight for positive change. They don't have any say in how their departments are run, budgeted, etc. The founder rules with an iron fist, which is bad enough, but his business acumen is also poor, so the company and employees suffer as a result. Layoffs are part of daily life. The company thrives on cheap, entry level employees without a thought for how the high turnover and bad morale affects business. The pay is extremely low for the Bay Area and has not kept up with the times, so they are having difficulty attracting good talent. If you are thinking about working for this company, I would strongly recommend you do not. Just look at the other reviews on here. There are plenty of entry level jobs that pay better in SF, especially in the tech industry, and they aren't dead end. Trust me. Don't work for this company and you will be happier for your decision in the end.
