Pros

Bagels on Fridays Cakes once a month Glendale office was in a pretty good location with plenty of restaurants and shopping centers around it.

Cons

Pretty bad culture with a lot of finger pointing. Understaffed where people are putting 10+ hours day to make the unrealistic deadlines. The management decides when the deadlines are. Team leads/architects don't help at all and you are on your own with the project without a clear understanding of the larger picture. Not competitive salary.

Pros

Work life balance is actually great. The people you work with are smart and generally fun to work with

Cons

Roadmap is very disorganized, you kind of have to assume you will work on any random project each day

Pros

Catered lunch & snacks are a nice. It helps ease the burden of the insanely low pay.

Cons

There’s being an agile company with strategic change for growth and then there’s this company with frequent and chaotic change just to chase a buck.
