Pros

Started paying super competitively as of November 2013 due to the IPO. Management cares about you, and the work place is friendly. It has an upbeat college atmosphere where you're expected to be extremely social.

Cons

Some people spend all their time here. But that may be simply because they like it, not because they have to. People are often loud, joking, and jolly, which is mostly a pro but sometimes is distracting from work. You'll need some noise cancelling headphones if you want to concentrate.

Pros

Flex work model- 50% in office Direct team is supportive- great people (hope they stay)

Cons

Constant churn in leadership and shifting priorities. Feels like we can’t get anything done. VPs and SVPs who only care about managing up. Vision is lacking Slow decisions and lots of layers of approval Women pushed out of leadership Feels like they are gaslighting people with talk of being employee first yet they hire leaders who do not live that value.
