Pros

Money, benefits. I got raises. There is compassion, inclusion. The people are nice. There are very little A-holes. I got good experience and good work in my portfolio. Work/life flexibility and understanding.

Cons

commute to Newark twice a week, major career stagnation. I rate lower on the "work life balance" category because of the commute. Otherwise there's flexibility. Very little promotions, especially in creative. It was hard to get new opportunities or any upward movement, but it was easy to stay because the pay and stock RSU's were good. They started offering a lot of career development programs, but it's still very easy to get lost or stuck there. I got laid off with the same title and job description after almost 8 years. There's a little bit of the fakey culty vibe going on there, where the C-suite likes to act like they are saving the world. But that's probably typical at a lot of tech companies.

Pros

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

Cons

Disorganisation. Commute can be hard.

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.
