Pros

Some very smart, passionate co-workers. Flexible schedule and vacation. Ability to work from home as needed. Chance to have an impact on an industry. Work/life balance. Very approachable CEO. Great compensation and benefits, seriously.

Cons

Lots of new first-time managers in more senior positions. Rapid growth leading to hasty hiring practices. Requires immense domain expertise (long ramp up period for new hires). A considerable amount of technical debt to overcome. Poor decisions in recent past appearing to affect an uncertain future. Difficulty managing expectations and delivering in a timely fashion. Not much individual accountability. A culture that seems to be evaporating, albeit slowly.

Pros

The culture here is unrivaled. So many companies try to play up their fun-loving culture and use it to their advantage, but they are all missing the unexplained factor that Centro holds. Aside from the brilliant personalities, Centro is built on the grounds of education and development. Yes- they actually care and take action on improving your skills and fostering a culture of learning! The philosophy that success will come if you hire intelligent, capable 'peeps' and invest in them personally, spills over into every daily function of this company. Transparency throughout the company is also apparent. We are constantly reminded of where the company, departments, individuals are at and what direction they are headed. You really feel like you have a stake in what happens in all areas of the company.

Cons

None- Shuttle me door to door when it's cold outside?
