Pros

I have been working at BlueCava for over 3 years and have had tremendous personal and professional growth during this time. I have had a unique opportunity work in and lead different teams in the company, from Quality Assurance to Data Engineering to now Products. The management team has always inspired creativity and innovation from all the employees, which makes it for a fun work environment. • tremendous market potential of product offerings • always on the bleeding edge of tools and technology • significant growth opportunities for all employees • equity stake in the company and very competitive compensation packages • bunch of talented individuals, fun work environment

Cons

• have had our fair share of strategic direction and personnel changes in the past, but now we are on a focused path of solving the most challenging problems in digital advertising • can always use more games (pool, ping pong & foosball are not enough :) )

Pros

-work with fortune 50 clients -lean startup, so great opportunities for growth -in a new, emerging space for cross-screen adtech, great because we're creating the standards for this new industry -good pay & everyone has an equity stake in the company -leadership is receptive to feedback

Cons

The company went through some pretty significant leadership changes, which was a tough transition initially (which happens at startups). Since then though, we've grown a lot on both the development side and the client side. We've also hired several people to fill positions that were seriously needed, and opened a 2nd large office in NY where many of our customers and partners are.
