Pros

Excellent bonus plan! Work/ life flexibility, highly inspirational environment that motivates you to be your best. Company pays your select charities for hours spent volunteering outside of work. Highly collaborative and positive culture.

Cons

Benefits should be more competitive. Even though parental leave is enhancing in 2018, it still is not competitive enough to attract top notch millennial talent from companies like Facebook, Amazon, Netflix and Google that offer 100% paid parental leave for at least 4 months. Need better cafeteria option in HQ. The food is not that great for the price.
