Pros

Fantastic Technology - it works. Great place to work if you stay at the surface and go with the group.

Cons

- New ideas or ways of doing things are not welcome; group think. - “Boys Club” - Women & minorities are not respected or listened to - Very few people with experience, which can be a plus, though in this case, it is not. - Viscous environment - during my time they: - Let someone go who was admitted to the hospital when COVID broke out and who was still visibly and audibly sick upon return three weeks later, - A key team member featured (and who presented at the company’s 2020kickoff as a success story was moved to a different team and let go a quarter later for performance… - Cutthroat - Those who spoke out against the kool-aid, even while providing solutions, were ostracized and removed.

Pros

Casual atmosphere Daily catered lunch, free snacks + drinks Great people, tons of talent Great product, very successful in the space Growing fast

Cons

Work-life balance is a problem across the organization. Pressure to complete assignments outside of normal working hours. Work from home options and flexible vacation time are subject to the whims of your department head. Velocity of projects and shifting focus can leave little room for confidence in quality of work delivered. Leadership is complicit in late additions, changing priorities, and ad hoc everything-is-urgent asks outside of established processes. Managers are frequently senior or high-performing individual contributors promoted into management roles with no reduction in their individual responsibilities and little training. This results in disengaged direct reports and high turnover. Location of NY office is pretty awful. Right by port authority and times square. Convenient location for transit hubs but really, really not great to walk through every day.

Pros

I stayed in touch with a handful of wonderful people.

Cons

The culture is immature and toxic. Tons of automation and process, but a strong discouragement to communicate out of rank. I’ve never felt so uneasy at an organization. Strong cult vibes.
