Pros

There's so many: free food, great pay, free commuting on the Caltrain, great medical and dental, lots of vacation time, and all the benefits you'd expect with such a great company. All of those are great, but best yet is working for a small, successful company full of tons of passion creating a better, more educated world. Our founders are pretty cool too.

Cons

The cost of living in Mountain View is high and living further away where it's cheaper makes for a longer commute. Still, this is par for the course for the bay area.

I agree that our founders are pretty cool! It's hard to find a privately held company where the founders are so generous and accessible to every employee in the company. Our founders have an open door policy and genuinely listen to ideas and suggestions from everyone in the company. We know that Mountain View is expensive, which is why we offer a free Caltrain pass to all employees. We get the perks of a great downtown Mountain View location with free trips to work.

Pros

Occasional food trucks at happy hour

Cons

The responses from their HR team on here are laughable. The leadership team will screw you over overtly, egregiously, and repeatedly. Do not work here. You’ll have to sit through tearful speeches from the CEO about how his name is pronounced while their chief growth officer runs multiple parts of the business into the ground while posting about dating drag performers on LinkedIn. Their social media posts are filled with comments about complaints about a lack of customer service. They don’t care about their clients, customers, or employees.
