Pros

- Generally filled with sweet, down-to-earth, and relaxed - yet very smart people - Interesting new technology; high-tech - Truly a global firm - Open-door policy with management - Managers do not micro manage - you are given much flexibility to finish your tasks at a high caliber - Relatively flexible hours - Free parking - 5 minute walk from BART - High potential for the company to go public in the near future

Cons

- Though it is a very "practical" location, there is not much going on with entertainment & food at the Daly City location other than a movie theatre and Subway (but drive 5 minutes and you'll find plenty of restaurants & places to run errands) - A few mixed messages from the executive team - No communication relayed from the board

Genesys Response

Thanks for your thoughtful comments. Of course, I agree with you on the positives! People here really are nice, and although that shouldn't be unusual, it is. On the constructive side, you raise some good questions. You don’t hear from our board because we operate independently; unlike some boards, they are not particularly involved in the day to day. We’d love to offer lunch every day but the businesses around would suffer, and as a result of an agreement with the landlord, this is not an alternative. We have been actively evolving our go to market strategy and I think you’ll notice the momentum growing in this area. If you have more questions or would like to discuss any of this in more detail, please feel free to come and speak with me or anyone on the leadership team! ...Tracy
