Really nice company to work on. The company is growing everyday. There’s a lot of benefits: - really interesting work and product; - awesome on-boarding and welcome pack; - nice atmosphere; - pro / personal life balance is fine; - catered meals 3 times a week; - free snacks / drinks all week; - really great health insurance (for you and your spouse, children); - a lot of possibilities to travel with at least one trip to New York per year (plane, hotel, food paid by the company); - a huge possibility to move internally (New York, Boston, Dublin) or to work in remote (San Francisco, Toulouse, London, Tokyo, Sydney...); - good development prospects; - referral bonuses; - Game Center: foosball / PlayStation / switch; - paid gym (75%); - child care; - stock options (RSUs); - participation bonus; - transport reimbursement.

Cons

If I really had to say something I would say that they “only” reimburse 50% of the transports cost

OK if you are ok with not getting overtime

Business Outlook

Pros

team members are smart and helpful

Cons

unlimited time off is a bit of a scam to not payout on your PTO when you leave, they misclassify their solutions engineers as exempt on the West Coast and the time commitment is high, so you lose out on a ton of overtime. much of the manageme is inexperienced
