Pros

Flexibility to work from home, bringing dogs to work, medical insurance coverage is great, encouragement of open and direct communication with peers and manager, fast pace decision making (don’t spend hours in unnecessary meetings), love the people I work

Cons

Crappy employee discount policy. Not a fit culturally for everyone given the pace and crazy high expectation of results. There are times when things get pretty stressful, a lot of high pressure from above and tensions can run high on the team especially leading up to launch. Regularly being forced to launch half baked products because leadership wants us to not because it’s what’s best for the customer.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
