Pros

Ability to learn a saas product & e-commerce trends

Cons

Bronies as coworkers, the company mentality is that everyone is "special" and everyone is bound to "success" when that is not reality, almost like the 90's era of everyone is a winner for participating. They have successfully sold the product to their employees, the training period is a form of mental conditioning, where they tell you to "freely" be "yourself" but yourself has to be a certain way. Flawed smiley system, hours kill social life.

Incredible Place to Work.

Pros

The perks are almost embarrassing. Catered breakfast & lunch, beer on tap, plentiful snacks, significant professional development budget, sport equipment stipend, childbirth bonus, monthly housecleaning stipend, monthly childcare stipend...the list goes on. What makes this place the most sticky, however, is the culture. Can't speak for everybody, but I've never felt as empowered and respected as I have here. You have the opportunity to do your best work and are recognized for doing well.

Cons

It's a fast pace. I've been here three months and have found myself working late more often than I did at my last job. There's no relaxation police, though -- on slow days you might play a lot of ping-pong, and on busy days you work later. It's a good balance.
