Pros

- Perks are great and offices are cool, but that is not going to keep you happy in the long run. - The CEO is great but the rest of senior management needs to get it to together. - They have a great HR and Corporate Image team.

Cons

- Insurance is expensive, no 401k matching. - Salaries are sub-par compared to their direct competitors. - Executive team is just gunning to make The Street happy quarter after quarter. - There is no Engineering leadership in Boston, making all decisions driven by marketing, sales or product (that used to be either part of marketing or sales previously). - Revolving door for product and sales teams. Marketing too but at least that has been getting better. Ask me in three months.
