Should have listened to Glassdoor...

Pros

The pay is good but the company is pretty cheap when it comes to anything else

Cons

I read all of the bad reviews before joining and like the optimist I am I joined anyway. My perspective was that they were trying to improve all of the areas that the people were complaining about and I could help in that effort. This is definitely not the case. What I realized is that they are actually satisfied with how things are going there. I couldn't believe it. They totally underestimate how terrible they are in all facets. It's more like, "We'll get to that someday" mentality. I found out all of the negative reviews are actually true. Everything from the worse management I've every experienced to the terrible products (which they actually approve of). I should have listened to Glassdoor...

Pros

Competitive pay, annual bonus, opportunities for travel, good people for the most part

Cons

Severe lack of work/projects, no stability (fear of layoffs is constant), Engine product which is their bread and butter really does not bring anything to the table, poor customer satisfaction/retention, mobile related software developed by shooting at the hip, US Engineering department very poorly led and products go through almost no design or quality cycle; positive products reviews in App Stores mostly left by company employees
