            Pros

            If you're a sneaker head, or you have an appreciation for the culture, then you will be around like minded individuals and come in contact with many rare and amazing sneakers.

            Cons

            - Horrible management and HR. - They will try to force you to do work outside of your responsibilities. Then get upset when the priority work isn't done. - Hazardous and dangerous work environment. They're cheap. So when it's summer, it's blazing hot in the office, and when it's winter, there's no heat to stay warm. Massive floods, roof collapse, and power outages every other week. They try to fix the problems with bubble gum, rubber bands and used band-aids. - No room for advancement -

                  Teams can sometimes be run very lean for the amount of work that needs to get done. High turnover.

                    Just like any work environment, your leadership team can make or break the work environment.

                        Good company with great leadership. John Donahoe is the unsung hero of SV. The compensation is good and they are generous with Restricted Stock Units. Nice work environment.

                        Cons

                        People could be nicer. It can be a tense work environment with lots of stressed out people snapping at each other.

                      Alex L.

                      Applied for a job a few weeks back, got a call from HR yesterday morning about an interview next week. She mentioned she'd shoot me an email with all the interview details, but so far, my inbox is empty. Assuming I'll hear from her early next week, is it normal for them to expect me to show up for an in-person interview on short notice, like couple days?
