Pros

Smart, supportive, non-political work environment. Flat company without too many layers of decision makers. A company that does the right thing for the employee and genuinely cares. Good benefits including generous paid time off, RSUs, health and flex benefits. Great people. Like my boss and my team. We have fun at work, but we do work hard.

Cons

Compensation is not industry leading. But with the RSUs which are very lucrative at the minute with our rising stock price, it does somewhat make up for it. And anyway, if you have been around the industry long enough, you know that money is not everything. Pay isn't bad mind you. Just not necessarily top 20% of the industry.

Pros

* I enjoyed the collaborative team culture. Everyone was supportive and willing to help each other. * The work-life balance was good, and the overall working environment was relatively low stress. * I had opportunities to work on large-scale enterprise products and collaborate with cross-functional teams.

Cons

* One area I felt could be improved was compensation growth. As my responsibilities and technical skills expanded, I was looking for opportunities that offered stronger career and compensation progression.

Pros

Great benefits, wellness and mental health considerations.

Cons

Organization seems to be influx about where they are heading. Makes it hard to create goals for the entire org and get proper direction.
