Pros

The best and smartest team I've had the pleasure of working with. Clear direction and trust from upper management allows everyone to work autonomously. Obviously you're expected to do well, but you're given what you need to exceed goal and not micromanaged along the way. Great view, real opportunities for career growth, flexible hours working from home... but you won't because everyone is great and there's free catering every day.

Cons

Typical startup growing pains. Newer roles require you to wear a lot of hats (but good work is definitely rewarded).

Pros

-good pay (until you’re laid off) -free benefits

Cons

-management is a mess -not sure about ipo prospects anymore I was poached from a good job to come to CCI and then let go 4 months later. the entire division was laid off so I don’t think upper management has a solid strategy that is working
