Pros

If you're in the creative department there is a lot of opportunity for growth and making a difference. People are fun and outgoing, the company culture is extremely relaxed. People go all out during culture festivities. We have unlimited PTO and people generally are chill with however you take it, and depending on what team you're on they may not even track it. I really enjoy my job because I feel like I have the power to make a difference. Sometimes it can frustrating because there's people giving opinions where it's not their business, but that's like any company. My team is hilarious and I feel empowered to help the company. The cons sometimes get to me but overall I feel that my work is fulfilling and I'm happy. I love the perks. There's a fully stocked kitchen with rotating snacks, everyone gets those expensive adjustable tables and chair...and you'll get any equipment you need to do your job.

Cons

Only when I worked here for over half a year I started to realize some things, and it's the reason why this review isn't 5 stars. Even though my department is great, the morale at the company is pretty low. It takes forever for something to be completely built. From the idea of conception to final delivery, things take way too long. It's also embarrassing to me that we're a public company for four years now, yet nobody knows who we are and what we do. The executives are so risk adverse, so we test things to death. And by doing that, it adds so much time to our final delivery. The dev team is shorthanded like crazy, which is also a contributing factor to why things take so long to build. It's an endless cycle of problems. Sometimes I have to worry if the products that will bring us forward will be built, because it takes too long and management is scared of change. It's what we need, but people don't want to be responsible if it fails.
