      Pros

      * You can have dogs in the office

      Cons

      First things first, they tell everyone at the company meetings to go on here and rate 5 stars, take the reviews here with some salt. * Slightly below market rate pay * Laughably horrible 401k match * "We deploy 300 times a day" means "we expect you to get a lot of work done, do all your own QA, and then get paged in the middle of the night when something goes wrong" * Excessive focus on the stock price * "We don't care how long you're in the office, only that you get your work done" means spending more time in the office, not less * Their biggest expense is people, and it shows in ugly ways when they're reducing costs * Office is cramped and provides no privacy * Witnessed some unethical, borderline illegal behavior in support and product groups

      I'm grateful for feedback on our employee experience in all its forms, but honestly, this review is filled with serious allegations, leading with the notion that we tell employees to leave five star reviews, which is untrue, and progressing to some pretty significant claims around legal and HR related issues. I welcome the opportunity to understand your commentary and feedback, or am happy to point you to the in-depth resources we have for employee resources in both HR and legal, so please ping me directly to connect further on addressing your concerns and feedback. -Katie

      Pros

      The teams you work with are phenomenal. The knowledge combination between an internal customer facing teams, engineering product development teams, and Sales are unmatched.

      Cons

      Excessive use of PIPs to oust employees after multiple high revenue launches, with no explanation, actual documentation, or factual data. Reviews have been adjusted to allow for terminations post pre-approved leaves. Salaries are a joke. You are always in a cover yourself mode 24/7. Management reviews are consistently a 2 or 3 out of 5 no matter what. If a team decides you aren’t in the group, management will put you on a “unofficial” PIP without telling you, in order to surprise you at a later date. Even if they are unfounded. Beware of possibility of negative backlash post launches. They will feel the need to assign blame ( such as for timelines or issues related to bugs). Regardless of performance or level of involvement. This is an enormous company with many large paths for career advancement. But micro management is rampant, leaving little room for doing the daily expectations of your actual role. This degrades your opportunities for career advancement.
