Pros

Great formal onboarding process

Social activities have been nice

People are passionate about the product

Cons

The facilities are below Silicon Valley standards.

The ergonomics team seems more interested in cutting expense than providing comfort.

There are too many people pulling 60 hour weeks to also take time to mentor new hires.

Advice to Management

Too many contractors dilute the culture.

We should add some audio privacy rooms for people to take their phone calls in.

Print the org charts and post them in the hallway.
