Pros

Great environment, free breakfasts on a Thursday and free drinks and snacks. Flexibility with the hours that I work, you are trusted to do your work and not micro managed. Lots of work has been done to improve collaboration and communication. Employees are involved in making decisions and feedback is always sought. Really generous with training, loads of opportunities to go on conferences, books are bought for you, we have 10% development time and hackathons.

Cons

Nowhere is perfect but it's up to us to help to fix the problems and they let you do it at FanDuel.

Pros

office is nice, good benefits

Cons

this company is a sinking ship. its values have changed from a good product and happy employees to we will do anything at all to stay relevant. sports betting is a depleting business. FanDuel let go over 500 people in one day and proceeded to have a massive ad event and paid for peoples subway rides with knicks alum and merch and everything...on the same. exact. day. They do not care about you and they will get rid of anyone. I would not recommend anyone work here unless maybe you just graduated and are looking for experience. We just got rid of our CEO and our CPO is leaving as well as several other high level employees because there is no saving this ship. jump off now is my advice.
