Pros

Zendesk is very oriented around doers. It's a very distributed and small work team which moves autonomously and fast. Getting stuff done is all people seem to really care about. How refreshing. Organizational hierarchy is hardly noticeable. The culture is not "startup manufactured" as so many new startups are; it's genuinely very contemporary, maybe because the company had original roots in Copenhagen. All this combines to a great place to work.

Cons

Sometimes I wonder if the company is ruthless enough to keep growing or stay alive.

I mean, it's a nice place. I'd hate to see if we got into a fight with Salesforce.com.
