Pros

Start up atmosphere, company-wide activities, offer extracurricular activities to attend (community service opportunities, group athletics, group trivia, etc.), lots of free snacks/beverages in the break room, clean and new facilities/furniture, open floor seating, a lot of young professionals, lots of growth (new employee almost every week)

Cons

Late and sometimes long hours, open floor seating, management is young and sometimes new to management

Pros

Friendly, rewarding, and easy-going environment with an awesome cast of characters to come to work with each day. Success is based on how much work you're willing to put in. Management are very helpful and want the employees to feel comfortable and motivated. Great work-life balance.

Cons

There are truly not any significant cons I can remember from my three month experience interning at DraftKings. Only possible negative is a little too much goofing around and distractions with TVs on the walls and a ping-pong table in the middle of the office. Not necessarily a negative for some people! But when push comes to shove, people will work hard and produce results.

Pros

young, dynamic environment, take good care of their employees, interesting technical issues, state of the art technology (using c# though)

Cons

going through a rough patch now with all the controversy, law suits, un-known future; grew very fast so there is now over emphasis on process (will get better over time though), long hours (problematic if you have kids and family), weekend support during NFL season, on call over night one week a month
