Pros

Benefits/perks (Gym/phone reimbursement, no-premium options for medical/dental/vision) Good breakfast/lunch/snacks Awesome people and amazing coworkers Open culture and leadership

Cons

Pay: pretty low compared to market pay (also very low 401k match) Work-life balance: terrible and was expected to be working all hours of the day to get the amount of work done because team was understaffed Managers: Your happiness and success greatly depends on your manager (moreso than at other companies where I've worked). Unfortunately, my manager was terrible, condescending, and hated their job.
