Pros

- They pay well. - They're based out of the Times Square WeWork which has a great rooftop deck and a beer tap on every floor. - The technology is great and always improving.

Cons

- Management is extremely rude - Their expectations are completely unrealistic - No work/life balance whatsoever; place is like a sweat shop. They blame this on being a startup. - They often hire people for one thing and then tell you they need you to do something completely different once you start. - They have no appreciation whatsoever for dedication and hard work. - They have people running departments that have no business doing what they're doing. - Management micromanages you - Communication is a mess so they'll contact you at all hours regardless of your time zone on a million different apps until you answer. - There is no transparency and no job security at all. They'll tell you that you're doing a good job and then a few days later, you might very well be fired. - HR is based in Israel and has no idea what's really going on in the New York office.
