Business Outlook

Pros

- You work with very talented, motivated and smart people. - The company is quite reflective and takes feedback seriously. - Benefits and pay are generous.

Cons

- They give adequate performers severance (this is outlined on their culture memo). While it's not the companies intent, this consequently promotes a culture of high performance based off fear of getting let-go. -The environment is quite pressurizing. The feeling to constantly perform at 110% is real. -Little growth opportunity if you start as an IC and would like to grow into a lead.
