Pros

Kind, generous and welcoming colleagues. So many bright and passionate people. Great snacks, free Friday lunches, great health benefits. Beautiful offices.

Cons

Nepotism. Authoritarian attitudes. High turnover. Too often management depends on fear to motivate people. A high percentage of employees are in the US on visas and there continual fear of deportation should they make a misstep. People were fired for no good reason with little warning. Sexual harassment went virtually unaddressed. Lots of talk of it being a "family" but that mostly meant they felt they had the right to keep you from going home to your family. 50 hour work week minimum, but most seem to work 70-80.

Pros

Free lunch and Winter break.

Cons

This is a 'Lala' company where the CEO treats his employees as servants. They have to either fall in line or move out. He is not open to ideas. It is his way or the highway. His 2 kids are in executive roles and do NOT add any value. This is dying company with absolutely no future,
