      Pros

      I really enjoy the managers I report to. They are kind, flexible, and make you feel valuable. Ancestry also has great benefits- cash incentives to encourage healthy habits, free food, and good health and dental benefits.

      Cons

      Some departments encourage interaction with coworkers while other departments discourage it. A bit more consistency across the board would be helpful.

      Pros

      It's fun. Everyone here is friendly and works together, even across teams. Benefits and good and there are some nice perks.

      Cons

      The bottom line is always being considered. Sometimes, form beats function. Not many opportunities for growth within departments.
