Pros

Unlike a lot of Silicon Valley companies, the people here seem dedicated to doing a good thing for the world. The company is no longer a "startup" but it still has a lot of the energy. The office is a big converted industrial space with 30' ceilings. It creates a fun atmosphere when the sales team starts singing after a big victory, or on Friday afternoon when the Nerf weapons come out. In short, the place has a lot of personality. Lots of people work hard, but they also have a lot of fun. All kinds of people work here, from engineers to English majors, and everyone hangs out on Friday lunches. Very egalitarian.

Cons

The management team is so deep in their work that they sometimes forget that not everybody is accessible 24/7/365. But they are usually pretty good about understanding. The benefits packages are more startup-y than I would like, but apparently that is changing soon. If they do get the benefits package in line with their competition then I would improve my rating by a point.

Pros

ReputationDefender has some terrific people, and some not-so-terrific people on staff. The people that know what they are doing, and are passionate about the work they do, make coming to work worthwhile. The company hosts lunch every other Friday, which is a nice perk, especially if you are on the payroll there and barely scraping by. The office space is kind of nice, if not a little sterile and a "made for TV" Internet startup space (i.e., converted warehouse space in an office park next to some train tracks in a dodgy part of town). Oh, they also have a basketball hoop.

Cons

Upper management does not care about or respect the people that are doing the work for them. All of the directors seem perfectly content to push ungodly amounts of work and ridiculous deadlines on their employees while the directors themselves jet around the world and hold half day business lunches with potential investors. Corporate culture is all top-down, with little or no say as to how things should and could be improved on any level. Directors are rude to managers, who in turn pass the buck along to the lower level employees. A culture of secrecy pervades, fear and intimidation are the order of the day.
