      Pros

      I've worked at several different firms in the tech industry, and there's no question that this has been the best experience I've had. Co-workers are friendly, intelligent, helpful, and fun. Excellent benefits and salary, and a great product of which we're all pretty proud. Atmosphere may be changing as all of the founders have left now and the organization is growing rapidly, but that remains to be seen.

      Cons

      Located in New York, not my favorite place but it works

      A Fun Place to Work

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      the release cycle is fast - tweaks can be launched minutes after you think of them your work at OkCupid really makes a difference in the world coworkers are smart and easygoing the office is an open floor plan, so communication is easy you get to work on some pretty cool technical challenges the development framework includes the best HTML templating language I've seen and allows you to avoid less pleasant aspects of C++ like manual memory management management provides helpful guidance when you need it without being micromanaging

      Cons

      the open floor plan means a little less privacy the custom development framework means a learning curve when you start the development process is relatively unstructured. This is bad if you need a tight structure (like hard deadlines) to get your work done.

      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
