Pros

great product, always looking for ways the company can expand, free lunch

Cons

Wow. politics, so much politics. Career advancement is not a thing, unless you are part of the click. There is a clear "unconscious" bias in terms of hiring, promotion and career advancement, and frankly the executive leadership is ok with it, because they are oblivious to the games their own leadership plays. Hard work clearly does not pay, all you have to do is be a "favorite" of your manager.

Pros

Audible is an Amazon company. I think as a whole, this company attracts people who are kind and fun spirited. Good product.

Pros

Your hours are very flexible as you just have to submit the first 15 minutes of the book by a certain date and then the final audiobook by a certain deadline.

Cons

This was a royalty share contract with no base pay and I only made about $70 total after many hours of work.
