Pros

Generally great smart people with high integrity. Huge growth = opportunities for effective people.

Cons

Getting big and harder to get things done. By now it takes more time to communicate and agree on change than to code it. Some of the newer hires don't get how to collaborate and work with others or how to DO vs. direct. Group think causes a lot missteps - though people are smart enough and work hard enough to adjust and fix. Of course this is better than analysis paralysis.

Pros

Great culture at the peer to peer level. Excellent learning opportunities, good benefits and great name for resume.

Cons

Pretend to be transparent but a lot of smoke & mirrors. Significant cuts to comp plans & commissions that resulted in challenging pay cuts. While salaries were not reduced the OTE is no longer achievable and it’s a difference of thousands monthly, can’t even sell stock because it’s tanked. That being said, we’re disappointed in comp and stock but grateful to be employed because It’s no longer a matter of if you’ll be laid off but when.
