Pros

The environment is professional yet fun; productive yet laid back.

They offer FANTASTIC benefits:

  • PTO
  • Sick/safe time
  • Medical/dental/vision
  • Paternity leave
  • Free food
  • Semi-regular catered lunches
  • Competitive salaries
  • Stock options
  • Morale events
  • Hackweeks
  • And much more.

A beautiful office. Very, very sharp co-workers (hands down the smartest people I've ever worked with).

As a developer, this truly is a place where we are innovating and working hard to build a killer product.

Cons

Company does not offer a 401(k) match. I've had difficulties getting a computer upgrade (seems a little lame as a developer).

Advice to Management

Keep up the transparency – it's quite refreshing. Sometimes it's a little concerning that the company has its hands in too many different baskets, so reassurance and vision help calm those concerns.
