Pros

Free snacks and lots of opportunities to engage with coworkers in fun activities.

Cons

Return to work initiative was very poorly rolled out. Owners made it completely non-negotiable, but there weren't enough seats for everyone (constant workstation poaching even after reserving your spot) and the office was constantly freezing (like people wearing mittens and blankets freezing). They also do not offer merit raises each year, and you have to campaign hard for even a 2% every few years.
