Pros: Very friendly and supportive co-workers.
Awesome perks.
The company really cares about employees.
Lot of opportunities for leadership roles.
Easy switch to different teams.
They are getting bigger every year, so it's exciting to be a part of the growth.
Cons: The review process is too elaborate. The stakeholder plan is a major part of salary; without it, the salary looks just average.

May 23, 2015
Pros: Great, intelligent people to work with.
Decent work-life balance (nice to have a gym on campus, etc.).
The company feels "young," which is nice for new graduates.
Cons: - Low pay (we shouldn't have to rely on a stakeholder bonus to get a halfway decent salary)
- Management is in general pretty awful
- Too much emphasis on procedures and bureaucracy
- Difficult to get promoted (not based on merit – my manager even told me I just haven't been here long enough)
