Lots of smart people, great vision, big market

Senior software engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

-Lots of room for new ideas. The tech is fairly new and broad, and there is minimal bureaucracy and approval "processes". -Talent is rewarded. -Smart coworkers -Transparency about company strategies all the way from exec level. Company meetings every week where all details of the business and financials are discussed.

Cons

-This company isn't great for people who are just out of school. The expectation is that you take educating and training yourself into your own hands, which could be a bit of a challenge to some. If you do not possess the knowledge and the talent to be a good problem solver, don't expect management to train you on solving things.

Pros

Your coworkers? For the most part are amazing. Sure there's always going to be some people you don't get along with but that's the same anywhere. They really take your needs into consideration and if you prove to them you're a hardworker, they'll treat you like family.

Cons

Underpaid depending on where you're living, no benefits yet but last I heard we were looking into some options there, almost guaranteed that you will work holidays.

Pros

- Great Technology - Flexible hours - Good Health Benefits

Cons

- Open Cubicle - Too much pressure - Recognition goes to the same set of people, it matters who stays up late & BRAGS, than who gets the work done. - Keeping quiet will not help, you need to be vocal about your accomplishments day in & day out.
