Pros

Free lunch. For those that don't care - you can have as flexible of a work schedule as you want.

Cons

For those that do care, having an open vacation policy is a bad thing. You end up working all the time because a handful do all the work and the majority goof off. And there is no vacation balance that builds up so management actually sees who is working all the time. Another con is that the company is still acting like a start-up in terms of communication, but not understanding that we are too big for everyone to know what is going on. So, management needs to communicate more - which they don't. Stuff is broken all the time, and nobody seems to care.

Pros

Free lunch at LDAC dining. Decent benefits with subsidized gym options. Location is on Presidio grounds with view of the golden gate bridge. Disruptive space which means good amount of opportunities to carve your own career path due to a lot of things being the "first" time.

Cons

Company culture is non-existent with little effort by execs and managers to change that. Favoritism tactics rule in marketing, while nepotism is the standard in engineering even at the executive level. No formal review process. Many have been let go without notice for no apparent reason which is normal to some extent, but in some instances the optics were extremely unsettling. While this may seem normal from a business standpoint, this has crippled moral in the company and more importantly distracted team members forming close team bonds in order to do their best work and be truly collaborative.
