Pros
  • Competitive compensation compared to other companies.
  • Remote work, with the option to come to the office if you are in NYC and SF.
  • Unlimited PTO, as well as company-wide recharge weeks (previously quarterly, now bi-yearly).
  • Opportunity to be part of interesting projects depending on the team.
Cons
  • Terrible WLB.
  • There's no bi-directional communication between employees and execs, along with execs' inconsistent decision-making.
  • Corporate politics are clearly visible and negatively affecting the team/org's direction.
  • Extremely hard to get promoted, as the career ladder framework requires so much more than other companies do.
