Pros
The people who you interact with day to day are phenomenal- good hearted, caring, intelligent people who you can become friends for long term.
Cons
After the office moved and the start of an aggressive hiring spree began for company growth, everything started to go downhill: 1) Massive layoffs 2) Unorganized management directions 3) Unclear structure and paths on where the company was heading towards next 4) Unanswered town hall questions 5) Massive firing of outside and inside sales representatives 6) Stressful environment For a company that preaches so much about values and being mission driven, it was disappointing, to say the least, to see how little this actually meant to management. It is an excuse for them to teach the certain values and behaviors for the company when they do not care about their employees. You are as good as the number you are reporting on. Be expected to add a lot of stress to your life if you work here as you are often made to feel undervalued. The false idols of the occasional free beer and convenient location are not enough to keep people happy. They say the good ones always leave, but in the case of the FiveStars, the good ones either leave or they are fired.
