Pros

Two offices in the United States -- Boulder, CO and San Francisco, CA, both of which are beautiful cities.

Cons

This is a cut-throat environment. At the surface there seems to be a 'family' atmosphere. However, there is internal competition among employees to subvert colleague contributions and innovations. From personal experience, this will lead to in-fighting and thus break the solidarity of the company and likely result in longer term goals failing. Further, the management tends to behave in a very passive aggressive manner (i.e., one-on-one meetings where changes are promised and then somehow immediately 'forgotten' once the meeting is over).

Pros

PTO benefits were solid. Many of the non-executive hires are highly capable and easy to work with.

Cons

There appears to be a lack of clear direction at the organizational level, with a primary focus on short-term financial outcomes. Office spaces are largely underutilized and not well maintained. There is also a noticeable disconnect between leadership flexibility and expectations placed on newer employees regarding in-office presence. Overall morale seems to be impacted.
