Pros

Perks and Benefits, some smart people.

Cons

Job is not satisfying. The product is awful and embarrassing. The company's data on individuals is inaccurate and the purchase flows are deceiving. All the customers hate the product and end up cancelling their subscription (High Churn Rate). There are plenty of fake reviews on this page. When I worked at Spokeo, the management team asked me to write a positive review for the company. I declined to say the least.
