Pros

They provide free lunch every day. Some variety but mostly fresh vegetables and chicken. They offer stock options.

Cons

They provide unlimited vacation. Sounds good but isn't. You have to get boss's permission and the company culture is one where they don't feel they owe you your vacation. The company holidays are few and far between. No MLK day or Presidents day off. You'll be expected to work there when most software companies, as well as the banks and all government offices are shut down for those holidays. You do some holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas off. The employer paid health plans have a very high employee monthly contribution.

Pros

-Working with really smart, nice people who are driven by the social mission of the company and the desire to build something -Free healthy lunch and snacks every day! Kombucha Thursdays and opportunity to try lots of cool new products -Relaxed vibe, approachable executives, collaborative environment where people support each other

Cons

-Hours can sometimes be stressful (you may not "unplug" after work) -You have a lot of responsibilities - more than you may feel you can handle. But on the upside you learn a lot

Pros

The founders promoted a great company mission, the office space in the Marina del Rey office is beautiful. Lots of free healthy and not so healthy food, catered lunch every day.

Cons

The member services department is not treated like the rest of the company. Once they moved the department to its own office in Inglewood (practically on the airport runway) the morale steadily declined and people started quitting every single day. The management for member services has no idea what they are doing, and most of them are so closed minded to creativity and ingenuity and it's incredibly disheartening. There are a select few that are encouraging and open, but they are stifled by the egotistical department heads. You WILL work at least one day on the weekend and have almost no chance of changing your schedule once they select it for you. Employees with children in school, or attending university themselves were not granted much flexibility either. To add to that, employees who had a college education (unlike some of upper management) were not paid any more of given any opportunity for growth. They claim to offer lots of opportunity to advance but the truth is, there were dozens of talented, smart employees who deserved a chance but instead were not given any opportunity to move up or even a raise from $13.00 an hour. I was so excited to come work for what I thought was a great company, but was completely put off after I saw its true colors. For a company supposedly dedicated to fighting for equality and food justice, maybe pay your people a living wage.
