Pros

Great co-workers! Great location by the beach! Ping pong tables.. and they pay 100% health care premiums.

Cons

Zero job security. Over the years they have routinely hired way over budget only to lay them off a short time later with zero notice or severance. Dishonestly at the top. They will say one thing to you behind closed doors then say something completely different in front of groups.. I have no way of know when they were lying but clearly it was one of the times. They keep talking about transparency but so far I've seen anything but! Recent layoffs which which were the 4th in the 8 year history we bad. Over two months they laid off many people, then apologized, tired to hire some back only to turn around and lay them off again!! Its totally insane here!

Pros

MeLLmo (makers of Roambi) is mid-sized tech start-up in Solana Beach, CA (about 20 miles north of San Diego). Most of the 70ish employees have been with the company for years, but there's a great influx of fresh blood recently as well. Awesome office right across the street from the beach and surrounded by great restaurants, as well as a train stop making commuting from downtown San Diego very easy. Laid back vibe yet everyone works hard. The product the company makes is very solid and sits nicely at the intersection of cloud, mobility, and data. There's a ton of interesting growth opportunities for the company. Awesome board of directors and the management team is pushing in the right directions. It's an exciting time to be at MeLLmo.

Cons

The company was building business apps for iOS before almost anyone else, and probably tried to grow too big too fast. That likely resulted in some mis-steps and made things a bit chaotic, but very few start-ups have a perfectly smooth growth path.
