      Pros

      Great place to work. Compensations and benefits are very generous. Interesting projects to work on. Easy to change groups, at least in engineering. Easy to relocate to a new office if you find projects related to your interest there. Get to work with some really smart people.

      Cons

      Has become a LARGE company but still tries to act as if it were a nimble startup. Promotion has become more about networking than anything else. Getting harder to get promoted.

      Pros

      -Great company becoming even better with the acquisition. -Free food and transportation to/from San Francisco is great. -Awesome people. -Co-founders are awesome. -Career development opportunities.

      Cons

      -Leadership has been an ongoing issue. It's definitely gotten better but giving out one management review doesn't cut it. People are transferring off of the Client Services team because management is lacking. Some managers on the team are fantastic but top leadership is inexperienced. We got rid of one poor manager and now we have someone who has gotten increasingly cocky and disconnected with the team. We need someone who can guide us on how to succeed and meet goals.
