Pros

- Free lunch twice a week, free drinks and snacks everyday - Casual dress environment - Some smart, friendly, and awesome people to work with - 401k + matching, benefits, employee events - Smaller company so you get to learn and be involved in many different projects

Cons

- Mountain View office is old and not located in a convenient area (San Francisco and Atlanta offices are nice though) - Management makes decisions that are not well thought out - Layoffs recently - Many young and/or inexperienced people with not much real corporate experience so not sure if the company can get to the next level

Pros

if you are looking for a fun tech environment in the heart of Silicon Valley - look no further. Usertesting is the exceptional opportunity for an engineer to learn a great amount of technology within short period of time. You will get a chance to improve any aspect of the stack without asking permissions. No politics or rotten corporate environment. Very agile oriented approach to build software. Not to mention that you will have huge support from VP and CTO. Great company to work for. Besides, they let you to work from home and go to any tech conference.

Cons

They don't want you to work after hours. :-)

Pros

I've worked at many start ups over the years and User Testing is the only company I've worked for that makes me feel truly respected as a human "being" and not a just human "resource." The benefits and various perks are the most generous I have ever been offered by any company. For instance, the additional free PTO between Xmas and New Years is amazing, the 401K matching up to 5% is great, the catered Tuesday and Thursday lunches and fully stocked snack room (of healthy snacks) are wonderful and a real convenience if your day is booked. BTW I see another review saying to beware of positive reviews because the company asks people to post positive reviews when bad ones are posted. The same is true in reverse! Beware of negative reviews, including some that may be bogus, after someone has been let go by the company for cause and is disgruntled.

Cons

I find the San Francisco engineering office difficult to travel to and park near so I don't tend to visit there much. While the catered lunches are great to have, I find that the menus are overly fancy, and then the food isn't up to the quality I expect. Because it's a fast-growing agile company, processes are not necessarily well known or communicated fully, often because they're being tweaked.
