      Pros

      The snack drawer has a nice selection of junk snacks and healthy stuff. Free lunches most days of the week. The people are nice too. Very young company in SF, so all the coworkers are young typical sf people. Vegetable eating, bike riding, and kale smoothies all the way.

      Cons

      If you work here, it kind of becomes your life. You work together 10 plus hours, you eat together, drink together..., do everything together. No room for your outside homies. It's great if you don't have a life before becoming employed, but horrible if you do. And your salary, it sucks. be prepared to be underpaid and overworked with 10 plus hours of your day dedicated to fs.

      Pros

      Independent work environment, innovative company, young/hip office culture

      Cons

      low compensation, weak organizational structure, lack of advancement opportunities (started in a sales position that was supposed to be temporary -- but never changed), told to cancel my Christmas flight home to work additional hours, reprimanded for being away from work on Memorial Day. There was also an expectation of pitching features that were not even available yet with the software. Had to use my personal laptop as my primary means for working.

      Overworked & Underpaid!

      Pros

      There are definitely some intelligent, outgoing, and caring people at this company. They also throw great parties at HQ on Fridays like you are in a fraternity complete with a kegorator, mini bar, snack drawer, and drink fridge. Lots of kumbaya / moral boosting to offset being underpaid.

      Cons

      30K base in addition to paying for a majority of your own travel expenses is not worth it! There is no negotiating with salary. People that apply for sales positions are lucky if they last more than a few months. Constant turnover. Price of FiveStars product increased several times to appease investors and company valuation. Lots of newly grads with their first job offer out of college that are eager beavers that are willing to work for free. Not my cup of tea.
