Pros

THE PEOPLE are WICKED SMAHT. The growth. The daily challenges. Problem Solving, Using Your Mind Daily. Sense of Humor. Culture. Environment. The snacks (please note weight gain in the Cons). Did I mention the AMAZING PEOPLE yet? Very ethical. Team Work. No two days are alike. Product is constantly evolving. Agile Development Methodology. So Casual you could probably get away with your PJ's. Open learning environments. Travel opportunity if you like that; ability to stay home if you don't care to travel. Flexible work hours/environments. You are ACTUALLY treated like an adult - there's no over your shoulder whispers. Flat management structure. Customers LOVE US - a 99% customer satisfaction rating. Progressive for Realz. Intelligent Leadership with Vision and good communication skills to employees. Doesn't have traditional HR - so there's no top down bull - it's all employee up - Employees are the company - and that is understood.

Cons

Weight gain due to free food and endless supply of pop. Demanding work loads. Completely chaotic. If you love an organic culture - this is THE BEST place to work. If you like traditional M-F 9-5 - go away; this is not the place for you.

Pros

- Lots of great people, good level of collaboration, I met some co-workers I will value for life - Good product, customers love it - I learnt so much, true global experience depending on your role, interesting project work and you will get thrown into lots of different scenarios - Flexibility and PTO are great

Cons

- Environment changed a lot during my time there, the culture is a bit lost at the moment - Pressure from c-suite trickles down to employees, too much onus on individuals to 'evolve' and solve problems which are systemic
