They promise a lot...but nothing will ever happen

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Informal work environment, diverse co-workers.

Cons

They're constantly checking what you do, no access to the internet or even Netflix, no smartphones/books/magazines on the floor. Low salary. They promise to get promotions and able to grow career wise, but that barely happens and if it happens it's through favouritism.

Netflix treated employees like adults. We had a 5k travel ceedit card and travel approvals were unnecessary. They trusted employees to travel as needes

Stressful timelines but worth the effort. Medical Insurance waa not included, but 10k a year was added to obtain medical insurance
