Pros
- Catered lunches - Close to Caltrain and downtown San Mateo - Decent benefits
Cons
- Office location is good but office itself is in an ancient building. Lots of inconveniences like lack of parking (you won't get a free parking spot until at least 1 year of service), terrible HVAC system (either too hot or too cold), awful bathrooms. Lack of meeting rooms, etc. - Massive CEO ego. He built this company to satisfy his ego so everything basically revolves around whether it makes him look good. - Final round of funding (F round) so this means IPO, being acquired or closing shop. - Excessive middle management. For such a small company, too many middle managers who don't do the actual work but only "manage", worse, micro-manage to keep their boss, and CEO happy. - Constant senior management turnover. In last year, VP Sales, VP Marketing, CFO, left. Mostly because the CEO keeps setting unrealistic goals and misreading the market.
