Pros

Supportive and friendly co-workers Creative work environment Flexible hours

Cons

I cannot think of any cons for this experience

Pros

Nothing. An amateur start-up company. Bad environment to work. No privacy. Everybody sits on one long table.

Cons

The CTO is not professional and snobby. The office lacks of privacy. No diversity.

Pros

- Great team environment - Opportunity to work at the forefront of an exploding industry - Work environment is well-balanced. Fast-paced and laid back at the same time

Cons

- Growing pains that come with any fast-growing company/industry

Pros

Young, fast paced, and growing at a ridiculous rate. Collaborative work environment and high level of expectations for results. Agile development with rapid release cycles. Amazingly fun work environment.

Cons

Speed has is detriments. When demand for ridiculous growth is in order, shortcuts need to be taken. We are also highly at the mercy of pro sports seasons for deadlines, which are extremely inflexible.

Pros

Very nice environment to work not only as an office, but more like what the people are. Interesting tasks and helpful colleagues.

Cons

Not any particular. Every job have it own challenges.

Pros

Amazing people, loved hanging and learning from some smart and down to earth engineers. Open office space, it was great to be able to work with the developers in an encouraging environment, and the CTO was among the engineers. Free snacks and drinks, even beer, and great location. Free tickets to sporting events too!

Cons

Morally, the business model isn't too appealing; it's essentially feeding people's addiction that's causing them to lose money. Also, the company is sort of in hot water with logistics of legality, which is scary to play with.

Pros

-Great work environment -Fast paced work -Everyone is a valuable contributor and is doing meaningful work that has impact on the business -Everyone works hard, but still has fun -Open floor plan encourages teamwork and engagement constantly

Cons

Not much to say here, DraftKings is great. The hours could be long for some people, but is mostly a product of the exciting growth period we're in.
