Pros

Health Benefits are far better than most employers. Work/Life balance is helpful. Downtown location is vibrant & convenient for commuting.

Cons

There is confusion on how to proceed.. not a meaningful & simple (and enforced) core set of principles but a collection of ever-changing "innovations" that require a corporate redesign every year, leaving all the needed housekeeping undone.. and confounded. Company appears ruled by sad grasps for growth opportunities in a declining industry. Office culture is a little nasty. Other reviewers say people are great but I've heard what my colleagues say about others they've targeted when they're not around. Very strange why so many people would volunteer bullying others so easily. "Great people"? I completely disagree. Some of the most unprofessional behavior I've seen in any workplace.

Pros

Amazingly friendly coworkers, great tech stack and opportunities to learn. SWEs have the opportunity to wear a lot of hats.

Cons

Management had some issues from what I heard, but I was always too busy developing and improving great products. It was a tough market with the ever-shrinking stock photography market, which was likely the reason for it's demise. If the developers working at Corbis had a more relevant market fit, the company would have soared.
