      Great company... if you're not a contractor

      Pros

      - I have met some of the most kind and wonderful employees - The company culture is great and inclusive - "Free" breakfast/lunch/dinner. Essentially you pay for lunch but if you are a permanent employee you get reimbursed - PRO Unlimited being onsite and essentially being the "HR" for contractors

      Cons

      - Terrible management to those who are contractors (minus the Customer Success/Support teams who have the best managers) - My managers were passive aggressive and made me afraid to ever miss work (I had the flu one time and they expected me to come in and didn't even send me home after clearly seeing that I was ill) - Lack of diversity - People being promoted over other people due to favoritism - People being put into managerial positions that are not fit - Constant micromanagement - I heard that some contractors at times get 1-2 days notice before they are let go and not really told a reason why

      Pros

      Square is a great product that sells itself. Payments is a razor thin margin business and the industry appears to be consolidating, so the future of the company is uncertain.

      Cons

      The leadership within Square's Tax team is incompetent and poorly managed. This created a hostile work environment within the Tax and Accounting departments, and many employees left due to this issue.

      Pros

      The company takes care of the employees in the position you have.

      Cons

      Moving around is hard. It's based on who you know and who you sit with at lunch.
