Pros

There are free lunches and snacks

Cons

Team members are asked to participate in unethical business behavior including misleading clients on the details of their campaign set up and the products they are using. You are not seen as a team player if you don't go along with this type of behavior and thus become a target. Management is the root of this issue and it comes from the top down. Every year there is a new reorg or beta team setup that they claim is going to fix all of the issues, but these reorgs are led by the same people who made the decisions before and therefore will never fix the fundamental problems. The field west sales team is the worst of it and the teams around them suffer because of their behavior. Management duplicates work several times over by creating Gdocs and various trackers because they are so incapable of using their own management tools. They lay off their highest performing team members in reorgs, and those who generate the most valuable work are not rewarded or recognized for their contributions. If you see a high volume of job postings, it's because of the constant turnover. I would highly recommend staying away from working here.

Pros

Free food (this is used to tie you to your desk for 10 hours). Great introduction into the programmatic space. Friday afternoon beer cart.

Cons

You will be required to work from at least 8-6 every day. If you leave before 6pm, you get stares of death from everyone around. You can hear a needle drop most days in the office and "fun" really isn't permitted. They love to pretend like everyone has fun, but as soon as you do it's seen as "goofing off". The interview process was absurd - throughout they will compare themselves to Google and after a gauntlet of phone interviews, they will bring you in for a 4-6 hour day interview where you will meet with at least 4-6 different people. They will then five you a taxing "homework assignment" that they will expect you to complete by the next day (i.e. stay up all night after your current day job to complete). If they like you, they will then give you an exam of some kind and have you come back in to give a presentation. Very little room to be yourself and have a personality. If you have weekly commitments outside of work, get ready to miss them. Your manager will complain to their bosses that you are not a "team player" and you'll most likely be reprimanded and/or fired.

Pros

Catered lunches are nice and your peers are generally good to work with.

Cons

The bottom line is that the company isn't growing and the only reason there are so many job postings is because attrition accelerated in the second half of 2018 and the company is struggling to hire because it can't give competitive offers because the value of Quantcast's equity is dubious at best and lacks any realistic path to liquidity. Beyond that it should be particularly alarming to people that a number of people quit without having their next job lined up. If you want more details I'd strongly encourage you to check out the Quantcast related posts on Blind.
