Amazing culture and people

Pros

I have never worked anywhere where people are so passionate and inspired by what we do and what we stand for. Overwhelmingly positive culture and inspirational leadership. I am excited to come to work every day. I've never been happier at a job, and I know many of my colleagues feel the same way.

Cons

Can't think of any at this time.

Pros

Amazing office space, awesome perks and benefits such as a quarterly $500 travel voucher. Kombucha on tap, anyone? Yeah they got that.

Cons

Work-life separation is a big problem, as is employee attrition in recent year (mainly as a direct result) It is not uncommon to see people, mostly at entry level and mid-level roles, working late into the evening hours. Exec level needs to make this a top priority, as it will end up sapping the energy and production levels of the corporate team. Recently when employees were hounded (with top brass approval) outside the office and in the lobby to vote for a particular candidate in the city elections, many associates were offended at this crossing over the line into personal life and personal political choice.
