Pros

Brilliant product / engineering / design team, excellent and friendly culture, and a great office featuring cool amenities like catered lunch, a fully stocked fridge, a ping pong table, a pool table, and a video game room. Work life balance is quite good. Unlimited WFH / sick days is nice, so long as you don't abuse the privilege. The company is certainly starting to feel like it is transitioning from a startup to a more corporate type work environment, in that there is a strict emphasis on tight code review and more process from product spec down to development. Company has and continues to expand rapidly and succeed in other regions, and has a positive looking future.

Cons

Comp seems to be an issue company-wide, which has led to some turnover. Engineering culture (while good) is quite separate from the rest of the team.

Pros

Friendly people, intelligent staff, successful agents. Beautiful office in a great location. Catered lunch, monthly happy hours, good work-from-home policy.

Cons

Invest in only specific departments, leading to high turnover rates (that they blame on being a "start-up" which they no longer are and don't admit to not caring for other employees equally). Investing too much in agent growth and not enough in support staff growth. Employees are underpaid for their hard work, intelligence, and backgrounds.
