Pros
Free (healthy) lunch on Fridays
Cons
It's not a startup. If you are looking for thrill, adventure and fast pace work environment, look somewhere else. It's not an enterprise. If you are looking for an established company with mature group of individuals, process and a good career path, this is not it either. Then what is it? Good luck trying to figure that out. This one is in a royal mess. With 35%+ attrition, you never know when you will be forced out or you will be forced to leave on your own. In the past 9 months, 7 VPs have left and company size has reduced by close to more than 30% Culture No-one trusts anyone - be it Senior Execs, middle managers or the people on the floor. For a company of 200+ people, this one is a political nightmare. No one trusts each other - from Execs to middle-management to engineers. Everyone is ready to blame others without taking accountability on themselves. Bully culture is not just tolerated, but promoted by Execs. No place for Good talent. Some Execs have no clue on differentiating Good talent from back talent. Executive team consists of the most in-experienced individuals ever to have ran a product company. The latest addition to the "C" suite has been a total disaster. This person is a dictator. It is their way or no way. This new individuals was brought to fix a lot of things but in turn has send the company in the deep graves. There is no logic behind re-orgs, planning, hiring, firing. It's all done on a hunch. Not just this Exec, entire 2nd layer of leadership across the board is least bothered of the culture they are building (rather destroying). Try bringing in any change - technology, process, people - and your opinions will be brushed off. Technology Mobile doesn't always translate to cutting edge technologies. There is so much legacy and junk technologies that it would take us 1 year to just migrate over to new stack. Not so much of a startup eh? Any new technology or idea needs to be pitched and approved by a "selected" group and blessed by Execs. There goes creativity. Finances & Benefits Stock options are peanuts comparing to other companies. Though they will tell you in the interview that they are looking to Exit in next few months, that's not true. There is a long way to go. No Bonuses No 401k match Transportation and Other perks are peanuts No career path or training. You are only as good as how much of an "yes" man or woman you are.
