Pros

Everyone is very intelligent and supportive, which provides for a great work environment. I genuinely feel that the work I am doing has real world impacts, which I have not experienced in previous jobs. The company recognizes exceptional work throughout the company and awards these employees (either directly nominated by members of their team or not) for their hard work. The HQ office is amazing, and has unique quiet rooms throughout the office (and a hidden ping pong room behind a false bookshelf!), and provides the teams with a snack budget, which come's in handy when a meeting goes long or you cant find the time to take a proper lunch break.

Cons

The only complaint I can think of thus far, is that it is often difficult to rope in some of the non-HQ offices - and many team members may not be able to visit the coworkers they work with on a daily basis.

Pros

If you are a person that likes happy hour there seem to be a lot of them. Most people work 9-5, so hours aren’t really bad Lots of team events, product demos, hackathons, etc Cold brew on tap! Very smart people, very friendly (in your own groups) Free security system

Cons

Pay is horrible for this market Need to be friends with the right people to get ahead HR is an absolute joke, make sure you understand everything you sign prior to joining, they will hold it against you, I’m not sure if anyone in HR is actually ever in the office though, so questions have to be emailed VERY political, make friends early or watch your peers get ahead faster than you More time spent with meetings a week than actual work being done Location is tough with traffic, unless you live close expect to spend a solid part of your day commuting No commuter benefits
