Pros

Though the company has grown rapidly in the last few years, they have mostly avoided taking on the corporate atmosphere that almost always accompanies success. Shorts, t-shirts, and flip flops are the norm here.

Cons

The down side of having the startup atmosphere is the expectation that everyone is available 24/7 and long hours and strange shifts are the norm. Not always the greatest place to work if you have a family.

Pros

Free Lunch on Wednesdays Solid Benefits Good pay for new hires

Cons

The flexible work week doesn't actually exist. It's an excuse to require some employees to work more than the 40 hour work week. Chicago employees are required to go into the office at least 2 days a week, even if rest of the team is remote. My specific team is without clear direction or leadership. Performative corporate jargon is rewarded over meaningful contributions. Existing employees are paid significantly less than new hires. At least on my team, there have been differences of $20 to $30K in annual salary for the same level.
