      Great at first, but once you see the favoritism it's disheartening.

      Pros

      Nice office. Casual dress. Good benefits.

      Cons

      Lots of favoritism. Hires people who are "friends" Cliques. If you're not in the clique you won't be happy. Expect you to be "on call" 24 hours a day. Not much work life balance. The CEO is very stuck on himself. Won't engage in conversation unless you're a VP or upper management. He likes to to very generous but only to people who are in his club. He can't even muster up a hello to you. The HR team is a joke. If you're not pretty and petite forget it. They're more interested in looking "cute and adorable" then being a true HR dept.

      Good if you like politics and the occasional sexual harassment settlement

      Pros

      Upon quitting, you may get a nice two week severance package, if you sign an agreement to never say anything negative about TrueCar, in private or public, for a 12 month period. Also, it's close to the beach.

      Cons

      Politics, drama, unsavory behavior. Offers "Unlimited vacation", but any time I tried to take ONE DAY off at any point in the year, I was heavily discouraged. Not the best way to buy a car, either (try Costco).

      Pros

      Some flexibility (depending on your manager), benefits paid for, and office perks.

      Cons

      Everything else. No one communicates (literally) with each other. Communication is done via chat or email and lots can get lost in translation. Managers don't know what they want. HR is crappy. Can't answer basic payroll/benefit questions and will give you misleading answers. Leaders talk about being transparent, but that's just half transparency. They knew they were going to have layoffs and were still hiring.
