Pros

Onboarding experience as a new hire is great. you are expected to learn quickly and contribute. I like it. Great company culture, training, and information sharing within the company. Opportunity to learn from lots of smart & helpful colleagues, and many good projects to work on. Good pay

Cons

So-so benefits. You will pay a good amount for health insurance, especially for family coverage. Vacation and PTO are decent but lack other tech companies 401K match is 2% of base-pay and 3 years to fully vested. This is very bad. please change this.

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.
