Pros: - Interesting work, with many teams to choose from when joining. - Everyone is friendly and helpful. - Great benefits (free snacks, meals, Caltrain Go Pass, etc.).

Cons: - Unclear return offer process - Lower-than-expected gender diversity

Pros: Growing like crazy. People are generally friendly and smart. Awesome product. Kids everywhere will admire you. Good benefits: * Free lunch * 401(k) match * Good insurance

Cons: The company has obviously grown without the influence of an effective CTO. Since teams are expected to self-organize without a common set of standards, there's a great deal of variance in code quality, hiring process, stack, project management, and titular responsibilities among teams. Little tooling, and what does exist is nonstandard. Everything from pulling source to testing on staging or pushing updates to production is needlessly painful. There are weird restrictions on the number of concurrent users accessing staging resources, which bottleneck feature development. Lots of intractable tech debt is left over from bad architectural decisions in the past, leading to slower velocity per engineer than many companies in the valley. DevOps and Corp IT are understaffed and lack automated tools for the volume of people they're bringing in. Culture and advancement glorify tenure over aptitude; some senior people who should be in different roles.

Pros: Nice benefits and good environment

Cons: Huge workload and unclear return process
