Pros

-You have work life balance, as there is not much work load.

Cons

I can not go on listing the problems here.You would not learn much if you continue working here and eventually in a couple of years you would be out of market as you learn nothing. The old employees working here are the main reason for the company not growing technically.They know nothing and are not ready to improve. HR team is useless.The only work they do is to add nice reviews about the company and their own team on Galssdoor. If you look at the last 2 years statistics, the attrition rate has been growing in the company, and this is only because new talented people joining the company are getting irritated by the old employees working here.

Pros

Work from home, great benefits, flexible PTO, competitive pay, bonus structure, 401k match.

Cons

A more Horizontal corporate structure than most other companies can leave you working more independently than most other companies. It's a global company so some of your partners may be on the other side of the planet. It's a very asynchronous company and some employees may struggle to adjust to the freedom and accountability.

Pros

The product managers were very helpful. They are the reason why Bold gets one star. Also, if you've been there for 4 years or more, you seem to like it.

Cons

I've never been so stressed in the first 30 days of a job. The senior manager gossiped about me and didn't have the knowledge to execute or to properly define expectations. I couldn't get feedback or clear expectations from the VP on down. It was like I was supposed to read minds. My advice is to run away.
