Pros

Small group of fun hardworking people here. If you are lazy but have a good social game this is the company for you!

Cons

Salaries way too low for location in Marin. Managers, Directors, and VPs only concerned with themselves. Zero mentoring at the company. No interest in developing hard working employees. Once you start working here you will be pidgeon holed to that task and job title. After begging for other responsibilities in order to grow, a year later you still will not get a promotion. Glad to be moving on, there are way better company's to work for, ones that appreciate their employees.

Pros

Congratulations on joining an IT department sustained primarily by optimism and certificates whose expiration dates invite reflection. Tickets enter a triage process best described as ceremonial — acknowledged warmly, processed philosophically, resolved at the discretion of the universe. Infrastructure decisions suggest a confident autodidactic energy that formal training might have tempered. Your recommendations will be received, appreciated verbally, and composted with dignity. The company charges a premium for its products and charges again for the remainder of them, which is either visionary pricing strategy or a personality trait depending on your tolerance. The gaming chairs are ambitious. The retention numbers are instructive

Cons

• Your labor props up a machine that monetizes joy incrementally until joy is gone • Every unresolved ticket is a monument to institutional indifference • Heidegger called it thrownness — you were thrown here specifically • The infrastructure will outlive your dignity but not your burnout • Mark Fisher already described this place in Capitalist Realism and did not recommend it • You will achieve nothing that compounds • The servers go down. You stay down longer.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
