Pros

I certainly had my doubts about leaving my previous job. I was at a company that recently went public, I had a clear promotion path, good friends and a comfortable job to come into everyday. I would be leaving this to go join a brand new "unproven" start up, and I also had to commute to it. Looking back now, I can't imagine how much of a mistake it would have been to pass up the opportunity to join Verkada. From day one I knew I made the right decision - the incredible market opportunity, the amount of talent I am surrounded with, the management and just the overall environment of the team/office. I really cannot imagine a better opportunity out there. If you are looking to work in tech in the Silicon Valley - this is the epitome of what you are searching for. There is something special happening here, and it's a great feeling to be a part of the team building it... I wake up excited everyday to get to the office and get to work. If you are considering joining, it is an absolute no brainer.

Cons

Have to commute from the city (personal problem) Typical start up growing pains/changes

Pros

Some of the people are kind, intelligent, and very thoughtful, which made the rest manageable when it unbearable Fancy perks: food, coffee bar

Cons

This is the worst company I have ever worked for. Inexperienced leadership and middle management creates an air of stress, anxiety, and frustration across all areas of the workplace. People often snap at each other, burn out, and successes are rarely recognized or celebrated. There is no sense of team unity. I even witnessed a monkey being brought into the office to be posed for photos during an end of quarter celebration. There is little flexibility for people not being in-office due to family/outside issues. There are too many meetings with no clear organization or purpose, and messages/emails are often sent late into the night, on holidays, and on weekends. I wish someone had warned me not to work here before I started, it was some of the worst days of my life.
