Pros

New office space is cool...if you can actually get away from your desk to enjoy it

Cons

Look around, no one is happy. Employees are crying in the bathrooms and taking time at lunch for job interviews. People are dropping left and right, either getting fired for not hitting ludicrous goals or leaving for positions with an actual career path

Pros

Very open and laid back atmosphere, young people can succeed and shine and be trusted, you can move laterally and upwardly quite quickly. I love that the company is about stimulating local commerce. A great underlying mission.

Cons

They are a little focused on the 'goal scorers' meaning that the sales reps and their managers get the best compensation and sometimes the people who support in other ways don't get as much recognition. But if you shine and also advocate for yourself tactfully, you will be rewarded. Also, it would be nice if they matched 401Ks and did some tuition reimbursement especially because they value MBA level education for many upper management roles.

Pros

The culture is great, young and new, people are creative and smart. Theres a lot of flexibility and the hardware and software are very efficient.

Cons

The work is very repetitive, the quotas you have to meet are a bit zombifying and after a few months you will probably want a different job.
