Pros

They supply a top spec Mac

Cons

Pulled a bait and switch on my team and after discussing it with former employees it seems to be a recurring theme. There are plenty of engineers who are happy there and work on interesting projects but there is a worrying number of us who get drawn in with promises of exciting projects and then thrown to supporting a fragile legacy system.

Pros

office is nice, good benefits

Cons

this company is a sinking ship. its values have changed from a good product and happy employees to we will do anything at all to stay relevant. sports betting is a depleting business. FanDuel let go over 500 people in one day and proceeded to have a massive ad event and paid for peoples subway rides with knicks alum and merch and everything...on the same. exact. day. They do not care about you and they will get rid of anyone. I would not recommend anyone work here unless maybe you just graduated and are looking for experience. We just got rid of our CEO and our CPO is leaving as well as several other high level employees because there is no saving this ship. jump off now is my advice.
