Pros
Great campus, good people at the ind. contributor level, hybrid schedule, privately owned (they claim "employee owned" but employees have no power, they just have a portion of their 401k invested in internal stock, which is great as long as number-go-up)
Cons
- Suffers from AI psychosis. Founder saw ChatGPT 3.5 and after that anyone with "machine learning" was hired/had clout and every project had to have "AI" in it somewhere. Meanwhile their homegrown tech stack is completely neglected. - Likes to pretend its some plucky, Silicon Valley-worthy startup, claiming that they're a "platform company". In reality they are a drop-shipper (that started as a catalog) that has a sales platform side-business along with other ancillary services for senior living companies. Very high on their origin story. - Literally claim the employees are "saving seniors lives" (and try to get you to donate to their PAC using that line), but couldn't care less whether they are doing business with some of the worst private equity ghouls on the planet. - Like most, upper management is just completely disconnected from the people at the ground level. Meanwhile they will throw gobs of money at anyone coming from a tech company, who all just come in and say "we need to add AI to that"
