Pros

Mark and his team work exceptionally hard to go above and beyond for the employees at Intrepid Pursuits. People are the greatest asset of the company and are treated as such. Beyond start-up perks, the environment is catered to making people comfortable and happy.

Cons

We move so fast that occasionally things feel chaotic. The company tries to maintain an incredibly high level of transparency to offset this.

Amazing place to work - wide variety of projects, ample opportunities to learn, and people who genuinely care.

Pros

*Somewhat* flexible work schedule - Everyone is encouraged to work out of our space, but as long as your stuff gets done, there's usually some flexibility if you need to run an errand or want to take a longer lunch. Office improvement budget - all employees get a yearly budget to get treats/toys/gear for the office. Think musical instruments, froyo, etc. Variety of projects - project length varies, but they rarely go on for more than a year, and they're usually less than 6 months. It's refreshing to be able to work on something completely new every once in a while. The people - it's easy to say this while we're relatively small (<60), but everyone is super awesome. People hang after hours and on weekends. Cool space. Lots of free gear. Time to work on "passion projects". GREAT mentors.

Cons

Rate of change - currently we are growing insanely fast, and there have been a ton of policy changes. Some of them are great, some of them not so great. Some of them made clear, some of them quietly changed. Nothing earth shattering. Unpredictability - sometimes you get yanked off one project and put on another, without much notice. This is a small downside working at a small company operating at full capacity. It's not necessarily bad at all, if you don't mind a little instability. Salary still a bit low - Though it's gotten much better, I still think we are paid just slightly below average for the field. Bonuses used to be great, but those were slashed pretty hard this year, as far as I can tell (to compensate for raises).

Pros

Very transparent. Constant re-examination of policies, pay, etc., strong desire to continually improve the company. Employee-focussed. Coworkers are excited, motivated, passionate. Awesome clients/projects. Low stress. 10% internal time. Accelerated rate of learning due to the fast-moving rotation of projects. Coworkers trust each other. Everyone's voice can be heard.

Cons

There is a lot of re-evaluation of policies, pay, etc. This is common at startups and I mostly see this as a pro, but things do change quickly. For example, I read another review that compensation is low at Intrepid, but this has already improved drastically in the time I have been here. This would not be the place for someone who wants to work at a stable, well-established company.
