Pros

Though it used to be better, the culture is decent. The company provides some fresh fruit, snacks, and allows alcohol in the office.

Cons

Coffee was recently downgraded to low quality beans to cut a few thousand dollars from the books; management repeatedly makes promises that are never fulfilled; projects and teams change often; a large number of employees leave every month and the company is mostly unable to attract new talent.

Driven team

Pros

Janrain has a driven, pragmatic engineering team. It's a great place to work with few rules and interesting problems. Great culture.

Cons

Tend to hire more Junior developers; doesn't pay market rates. Company grew very fast. Trying to be a SASS company, but really a marketing or service one.
