      Pros

      Free Food, Good benefits (health insurance, maternity/paternity leave of 4 months, commuter benefits, somewhat of a 401k match), flexible PTO, multiple office options to choose as homebase.

      Cons

      You could not negotiate salary if you were hired/promoted into another role/department. Rules and policy in my department changed constantly. PTO was hard to come by and was always a point of contention among those in Customer Success. Not all leads managed equally - someone might allow you to work from home, while another one would always deny it. Company culture is very cliquey... it was very hard to make friends.
