Pros

Great people amongst the rank and file. Everyone was knowledgeable, friendly, and collaborative.

Cons

After acquisition by Ziff Davis/Everyday Health, upper management fell apart. Lots of turnover, lots of unquLified vanity hires.

Pros

The people not in management positions are wonderful and the real leaders of the company. However, turnover is high and quality employees are looking elsewhere.

Cons

The place is a sham. There isn't one single person in the office that is satisfied with the work environment. The entire organization is managed by intimidation. Management relies on their team to do their job and make strategic recommendations only to take credit. Managing Director Greg Chang has no idea what he is doing. He doesn't talk to people who don't directly report to him. He prefers to communicate via his direct reports so if you're looking for an open door policy, or a place to work where your voice will be heard and innovation is valued, this is not the place for you. Employees are not valued, there is no budget for professional development or growth. They just don't care about the employees. They only care about their personal bonus

Pros

Pay is good. Location around all your favorite foodie spots.

Cons

What isn't a con? Even the free coffee tastes terrible. Mandatory "togetherness" breifings because they introduced some micromanagement tools to help the overlord managers dig their spindly little fingers deeper into your work life. Absolutely no autonomy, you are a drone for the greater good. It won't feel like corporate for a while because nerf guns, and alcohol on friday, but really you have no freedom. 3 people on the team will dictate to you what you are going to do and how you are going to do it, down to the format of your sql scripts. Not for the purposes of uniformity or team cohesion. In fact, I was the only one who performed this particular task, but they made sure I had this specific sql format, or else. 15 year old Vb.net code that was written by a procedural programmer from hell, about 5 different versions of .net in production so I hope you like context switching. Was told that I would be participating in development of a new ui from scratch. Instead was shoved into a hole where I solved help desk tickets and did almost no development for almost the entire duration of my employment. Despite regular meetings discussing this misrepresentation of the position during the interview process, there was not a single step made to show good faith in this regard. Even to the last day I was there, they kept me chained up in my hole closing help desk tickets, instead of performing my craft as a software developer. As a result, this company is crushing my career, as I knew it would. Without dev experience for the better part of a year, I'm not able to find another job, and I keep getting calls for help desk and sql dba positions... which I explained meticulously to management nigh on every other day before I left. To them work culture is beer on Fridays and random nerf gun fights, because middle school. But really the work culture is horrendous. No accountability, no professionalism, no drive, no collaboration, no communication, the team lacks motivation for any self started initiative, everything is impossible to them, the management makes demands on the team while holding the leash preventing them from accomplishing those demands. Stay away. It would also seem that the dev team management and project managers are getting the same misinformation and micromanagement from above them, so far as I can tell. During my time here I met 2 people specifically who experienced the same lies, deception, misrepresentation of the job description and what they were to be doing. Both of these people were in escalated positions from my lowly dev chair. There's a feeling of zombieness, of droning day in and day out. A sense of apathy, that at least I'm getting paid.
