Pros

Great benefits, awesome people to work with. Ancestry has a great work/life balance. Ancestry is a very forward thinking company that does a lot to retain good employees. I love working here and would turn down a similar position at a different company.

Cons

I have no complaints. I have never once had an issue that I was not able to resolve or address just by talking to the appropriate person or department.

Cons

There is always a learning curve when joining a new company, especially while understanding internal systems and processes, but the team has been very supportive.
