Pros

Perks are awesome, you get free lunch, more vacations than most places, possibility to work from home, free snacks and beer, ergonomic desks, great environment. Projects are pretty interesting in general.

Cons

Had a bad experience with management, at least on the team I worked on. Tasks are poorly defined, feedback is minimal until things go wrong and it's already too late. Weird people get promoted too. For exemple, you may see people with excellent coding skills but bad social and management skills going higher in the hierarchy. Management is not really good at time tracking properly neither. Another bad is that there is no support to get ideas through. For exemple, I tried to push the idea of having a store similar to the Epic one, and it died somewhere in Singapore with higher ups not feeling confident in taking the risk.

Pros

-Flexible WFH environment -Decent work life balance and good benefits for the US based employees

Cons

-CEO and CFO insist on being based in New York, when the Company is based in SF. Earnings calls are at 5:30am because screw you West Coast. -CFO will stop at nothing until all the G&A, Accounting, Tax, and, Finance team members are located in Bangalore in an effort to cut costs. Offshoring is massive here and will only continue to expand. -Constant anxiety about layoffs. Sometimes they announce mass layoffs, but more often do it in smaller waves so as to not rattle the cage. -Top heavy org structure. There's probably as many or more SVP, VPs, Sr. Dir level folks as there are individual contributors/leads.
