Pros

Benefits - I'd be hard pressed to find a better benefits package at any company. People - Both old and new, many people I have met here are fantastic and I am proud to work alongside them everyday. Location - State of the art office that is right on Causeway Street, access to public transit with North Station, across from TD Garden, and right alongside the North End. Start-Up Culture Essentials - Ping pong, shuffleboard, 2 kegs, a snack bar, etc.

Cons

There is a fair amount here that others have posted which is accurate. There is also a fair amount here that also qualifies as venting/frustration. (To one reviewer - my soul is not dead and is doing fine ;) )Communication has been my biggest pet peeve and management has improved at addressing that, though cross-department communication is still a work in progress. Compensation could be higher. The bottom line is that when a company transitions from an independent start-up into an alliance with one of the industry leaders and "corporate" changes are made, there are going to be a lot of adjustments, with many of them being extremely challenging and not necessarily suitable for everyone. Again, it's up to whether or not what you are doing on a day-to-day basis is worth it for you.

Pros

Great company feel - they plan a lot of activities for the employees and make sure you have everything you need in house.

Cons

Low salary - they really don't pay enough for employees to be able to afford living near the office/Boston - people live hours away and commute due to low salary.

Pros

The company offers excellent benefits, encourages personal growth, and sees genuinely invested in their employees' development and happiness. Overall, the company is comprised of whip-smart, innovative people who are fully engaged in their job and the company's success.

Cons

Adequate compensation and personal satisfaction varies from department to department. If you are an engineer, it seems you are catered to and are the top priority at the company. If you originate in a different department, however, your experience may be very different. It will also vary depending on whom is guiding your team.
