Pros

- The scale at which Groupon operates is phenomenal, people will learn a lot who are early in their careers (< 5 years) - Can't say the pay is the best, but it is good. - Manager (at least mine) pays a lot of attention towards WLB and learning (this seems to be a company culture) - Mid year promotions and raises.

Cons

- There is a lot of undocumented legacy code. - Sometimes WLB takes a toll, meetings start at 10 in the morning and they are scheduled for nights too. - The product and engineering is going through a lot of change.

Disconnected leadership makes working here extremely frustrating. Changes are made that don’t directly help anything.
