Pros
- Cool product - Some awesome people who want to do good work. There are some really talented people that work/worked here if you know where to look. - Very enticing culture with lots of giveaways, freebies, loud music, and seemingly happy people. - Lots of positive reinforcement for writing positive reviews on Glassdoor to keep the CEO as one of the top companies. - Very empowering speeches and stories that may have a few lies in it but who cares. Lots of name dropping so that's a plus. - They pay well to keep you guessing and under their thumb. But you can make good money if it's worth it for you.
Cons
- 80% of employees are outbound cold callers at a call center with no real reporting metrics. Call it what you want, that's what you do. And that's what you will probably always do. But they will make you feel good about it and always promise more without delivering unless you're a favorite. - The company churns and burns those who don't worship the company and its high members of staff. There's a brain-washing session called something like "The CEO's Vision" where you will feel like you're joining a cult. Go along with it, drink the kool-aid if you want to be successful at this company. But keep your comments/backstory to yourself. - Don't bother thinking creatively or trying to change the status quo despite the encouragement. The upper staff knows what they want and they will stick with that. Trying to change the status quo will get you burned fast. They are trying to sell the company and that's all that matters. - Anyone who is critical will be bad-mouthed by inside staff. (Be prepared for lots of ad hominems towards this reviewer from staff personnel). Don't trust anyone. - There are dozens of people who have been hurt, burned, and/or ruined because of their decision to work here. But there are a few people who really love it. - Oh almost forgot, corrupt business practices. But they are hard to see from the ivory tower. They are also masked by the Christian, Tony Robbins-esque facade that is projected.
