Pros

Audible has been my favorite place to work in my career thus far. With free lunches, tping pong tables that are actually used, unlimited snacks, happy hours, tech events, and the list goes on and on. That along with our mission to bring spoken word media to millions who wouldn't have had time to read otherwise makes contributing really meaningful. From a tech perspective, having the access to Amazon technologies and also the scale at which we build things means you'll never be working production support again.

Cons

None thus far during my time here.

Pros

Flexible environment. Fast paced. Very easy to have a huge impact. Great culture. There's always some fun non-work related activity going on. Beer every Friday. Lunch every day. Ping Pong, Basketball, Softball, ultimate frisbee. Just a great place to work.

Cons

I don't think this is a con but you gotta be on your game. Definitely not for everyone but for the right person you will thrive.
