Current Employee – been working at IMVU full-time

ProsAll the food and snacks you can handle, open in & out policy, titles are not as important as getting the job done

ConsPoor onboarding experience unless you are an engineer, constantly changing vision, very concerned about day-over-day data vs. long-term forecasting

Advice to Senior ManagementListen to your employees, all of them, not just engineers or long-tenured employees who feel they know everything

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Palo Alto, CA

Current Employee – been working at IMVU

ProsA great team of people who are really excited about our product and its users. A fun industry, with one of the coolest products out there. Beautiful, expressive avatars. Thousands of developers outside our company who build products that we sell in our catalog. A productive, agile engineering team. Super happy developer weekends. Free lunches a few times a week, with bagels every morning. We actually have a business model and make lots of money...

ConsThere are only 24 hours in a day...the product is very fun, so it would be fantastic to have more time to actually play with it as much as our hardcore users do, but we all work hard, so unfortunately we don't always have that luxury.

Advice to Senior ManagementKeep it up! Keep us focused and let the team run with their ideas and we'll all make lots of money...

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
