Pros

Great people to work with and more potential for growth than other companies. We have beer fridays and free lunch on Fridays and a fully stocked kitchen. Management is great and willing to help teach and encourage growth. I think that Demand Media has a great culture and that the people makes the environment a great place to work at.

Cons

The outlook of the company is pretty stagnant.

Great Team, Work Culture - everyone was very smart and had great ideas. You work with world class people.

Cons

Too much to do - very Demanding. There was a lack of support. The team I was on was small so there was a lot of gossip which was unfortunate. Professionalism was needed.
