Pros

Great benefits and a very fun work environment with enthusiastic individuals present every day. Plenty of work from home opportunities and flexibility, with a lot of internal growth potential if you're willing to work hard to move up.

Cons

It's a lot of work, teams can be under a lot of pressure to meet strict timelines at certain times during the year, but overall not a big surprise for a startup in NYC.

Pros

Higher up's are nice guys, bright and talented. Decent product in a rapidly growing industry. Good pay. Nice office space in NYC.

Cons

Trying to do too much, too fast. A delayed product launch screwed the entire company over and they had to let a bunch of people go. Things changed pretty drastically when new CMO came on. Good guy, but somewhere along the way, the company lost itself. Communication is very bad between departments, and management can be kind of secretive and shady. Don't keep your employees in the dark.

Pros

Truly the definition a booming startup. This is what I imagine companies like Google and Facebook to have been like while they were starting. Benefits are great, even for interns, and all the same benefits that apply to employees apply to interns as well (aside from the usual medical insurance and stuff like that) such as free lunch/dinners, work from home, company events, etc. Work is super interesting no matter what team you're on and since the company is still relatively small, you'll be given a lot of responsibility which is great for professional development! Engineers are cream of the crop and come from big-names such as Google, Microsoft, Apple, etc.

Cons

There are none! The only thing I can say is that sometimes if you need on a project help it may be hard to get since everyone is so busy, but once they do, they're always willing to give assistance
