Pros

Collaboration, transparency and hard work are the hallmarks of this place. 1. The company has a wide open door policy and everybody's so approachable. I joined as an intern but from the very first day, I always felt that my opinion matters and is weighed in when major decisions are taken regarding capstone products. 2. Everybody's so enthused about what they are working on. This place has a kind of atmosphere I honestly have never seen before. Everywhere you'll find people talking about the problems they are solving leading to great cross-team collaboration. 3. The company pays due attention to team-building as well. We have very frequent fun events to avoid burnout and recharge our batteries to keep functioning at an optimal level. 4. Company does stay true to its word of free and healthy food options, all day, every day <slurp slurp>

Cons

Why does this section even exist? Oh wait, there are other companies out there as well!

Pros

Smart and thoughtful team of people. The culture is influenced by senior management team, which really sets the tone. No micro-management issues. Generous benefits, PTO policy and referral bonuses. Beautiful office space. Very happy that I joined. Great stability for a start-up, primarily because of the parent company (Rakuten).

Cons

None to think of at this point....

Pros

Cool consumer app, amazing sense of team environment, gold mine of a dataset that can be used in a variety of ways, probably the coolest co-workers I've ever met. You feel challenged everyday and get to work on some really interesting projects that have real world impact. Great work/life balance and some nice perks with cool new perks being added. Unique experience of working for a startup at the same time being backed up by by a big parent company- Rakuten

Cons

Nothing major, but it'd be awesome to have free lunches
