      Intellectual & Rewarding

      Engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - company is quick to recognize hard work (promote, give raises, etc.) - high level of intelligence of co-workers / overall intellectual atmosphere (almost all employees are math/cs people) - easy access to management - startup-like atmosphere in a company that's actually already made it (i.e. secure) - the work you do affects people's lives - NYC street cred - yes, you can actually use your job to get dates

      Cons

      - quiet work environment - sometimes slow to actually go live with code I've worked on - missing some of the startup frills (free lunch everyday, beer fridays)

      Pros

      Site can be exploited for dates. User feedback often hilarious. Located near an excellent Italian restaurant. XBox available for use on thursday afternoons.

      Cons

      Employees are treated as replaceable automatons, in-company experience considered expendable. Employees are explicitly and implicitly disrespected by management. Enormous emphasis placed on the appearance of working over the achievement of goals. Multiple and multiplying project management solutions appear and disappear, and are never consistent with one another. Senior management members make demonstrably false claims about dating and engineering. Top-down communication virtually nil, bottom-up communication generally ignored. Critique of superiors' ideas simultaneously requested and discouraged. Physical office environment is spare, dusty, and poorly lit.

      Draining

      Developer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      To gain experience at a high traffic website To learn how to not manage a company You like proprietary technologies over sensible standards

      Cons

      The wheel is reinvented in ways that give little to no gain of value to the company The founders have little understanding of online dating or dating in general Very hard to find any pride in the work you do
