Great place to work if you have what it takes

Anonymous Employee (Current Employee)
San Francisco, CA

I have been working at Sourcebits Technologies full-time for less than a year

Pros-Upper management recognizes that the company is growing quickly and has recently made a lot of improvements
-Get to work with great clients, from interesting tech startups like TwitPic and CloudOn to huge companies like P&G and Intel
-Good benefits
-Diverse group of highly talented co-workers

Cons-This isn't a good place for someone who is used to cruising through their day on auto-pilot at a huge company in relative obscurity. Most see that as a pro, but it's a con for others.
-There's a lot of pressure to get work done at a very high level of quality and on tight schedules

Advice to Senior ManagementRecent changes have been great...would love to see even more focus on building culture

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company
