Pros

- Free Salad every MTWThu - Can't think of any

Cons

Upper management changes every quarter. People are leaving almost every week. Some good guys are still sticking around with hope of company getting bought by big fish but it isn't going to happen. The company is totally running on funding only. Take the funding out, the company will fall in 1 month. Microsoft have already lost their hopes from the company because the company is 1year behind to what it committed 2 year back. NO PROFIT at all. Its in the lose since the beginning. Layoffs/Quiting are always most trending topics company. No job security. CEO gives high hopes but he himself knows the company is not doing good and may not survive another year. He should step down and give other a chance. If you are planning to apply..Try something else. If you have got an offer and has other option chose other option or start looking for another job. Salary is not competing as well.

Pros

My overall experience at Adchemy has been very good so far. The hiring process was swift and smooth. I met with a good number of people, including the CEO. They were very friendly and excited about what Adchemy was doing. My hiring manager did a great job in addressing my concerns and gave candid answers to all of my questions and concerns. The offer was fairly competitive. I am a member of the research group. It is a small sized dynamic team with some very smart folks from the top universities. It has been an excellent learning experience so far. I have had an opportunity to make some core contributions in the project I am working on, in a relatively short time. There is ample freedom to experiment with any idea and implementation for the problems I have been working on. I have worked with a good number of people in research, engineering, and PM; I have made some good friends at work. And yes, free lunch from Monday-Thursday, happy hour on Friday, table tennis, x-box, movie nights, etc. :)

Cons

Some senior employees left since I joined; we are not yet profitable (though we have good funding).
