Pros

Great location and employee perks as there as an obvious initiative to attract and keep the best talent for the challenging positions here.

Cons

Reliance on legacy data makes implementing change difficult as shifts in mind sets can be a grueling task. Learn to live with things the way they are and accept change is slow, on some levels

Pros

TrueCar is awesome. My top concerns with any job I take are creating a good product that will benefit people, work/life balance, benefits, and having smart & motivated colleagues, and TrueCar exceeds all expectations on those fronts. The work is challenging but totally manageable and we're creating a worthwhile product that people can really use. My coworkers are smart and committed to making TC the best, and the benefits are really great! The location is spectacular (especially for lunch options) and the offices are really nice inside. The company culture is great. Working within the product sphere, my co-workers have a great sense of humor, are helpful and collaborative. I look forward to coming to work every day. Hours are flexible. Many of the developers work on a later schedule. The paid time off policy is fair, and there are other perks like reimbursements for your gym membership. There are free lunches once a week. Some of which have some pretty great food. It's all free so I'm not complaining! I feel very fortunate to be working at TrueCar.

Cons

As a public company, some belt-tightening started happening with spending, and I found it difficult to get equipment that I needed for ergonomic reasons. But in the end I did get what I needed to work comfortably, it just took a while. Commute into/out of Santa Monica is horrendous. Most of us can't afford to live near by, so many have to suffer with being on the road a couple hours (or more) per day. Wish there were commuter buses for us!
