Pros

- Free lunch on Thursday - A lot of the people are great to work with - Monthly happy hour

Cons

- Executive team ignores basically everything their employees tell them - Executive team also refuses abide by the processes they have agreed to - Basically no work life balance. The justification of this is that if you want to be winners you have to work harder? But everyone is working harder and the business is still struggling, so that argument has gotten the team nowhere. People are asked to work late nights and weekends - The entire list of benefits is fabricated. How could you possibly get a rating of 4.6 with one benefit (student loan repayment) for which half the company is not eligible. Healthcare options are not great, no 401k matching. - Year lockout on salary increases, yet more and more work is piled on their employees. - Liars! This company constantly tells the press inaccurate or completely fallacious things to make themselves look better. - No career path in any department

Pros

lots of great people work here and the mission of the company is cool. definitely on paper a startup that is doing well aka has funding and is growing.

Cons

the company is 90% great people but there are big management problems. pretty high turnover of early employees because management creates barriers to getting things done if you're not doing them the exact way they want. also still has a long ways to go to be competitive with main competitors. if you dont set firm guidelines for yourself, you'll be steamrolled into working to your limit without good feedback
