      Business Outlook

      Pros

      A lot of company sponsored events, happy hours, food trucks on site. Great development resources and opportunities. Full cafeterias and Collectivo coffee shops in most offices. More vacation and pto than I have had at other companies.

      Cons

      No bonuses, no profit sharing, no paid maternity or paternity leave, no adoption assistance, mandatory in office days and hours. There is a heavy emphasis put on extroversion. Doing your job well is not enough. It can be challenging for introverts or neurodivergent individuals to progress in their career because such heavy importance is put on socialization and networking within the company. They will also ask you to take on new roles or responsibilities for up to a year before providing any additional compensation. There is a lack of diversity in management.

      I feel fortunate to be here

      Pros

      I truly am a lucky person. The design team is great. Most project teams in my business unit are easy to collaborate with. My projects are rewarding. I hold a lot of weight in the decisions that are made on projects. I get opportunities to go on research trips. A lot of my co-workers I can call my friends. The expectation is simple: do quality work on time. If you work hard, you play hard. Overall, I look forward to working here every day. Plus, the designs look killer and function great thanks to a well-curated design team!

      Cons

      Projects move very quickly. The workload can be chaotic. The pay is low for such a successful company. Monthly business meetings where executives talk about "look how much money we're making!" can be annoying when the monetary success is not shared fairly with the workhorses. Even if you are valuable to the company, your compensation may be low unless you confront management.
