Pros

I really enjoyed working with my peers. The individual contributors are hardworking, supportive, and dedicated to doing their best work within a genuinely collaborative team environment.

Cons

I worked during a transition period following our acquisition by an investment firm. Due to the organizational changes, there were times when company goals and strategic direction felt unclear.

Pros

-Some very interesting people working there. -Depending on your department, you can learn a lot. -Hands off management with a lot of trust -Employee discount -Day off on your birthday (if it falls during the work week)

Cons

-Intense favoritism -Owner has a HUGE ego and will take credit for your successes. Only out for himself. -Made to feel guilty about taking your lunch and if you don't work late every night. -Told you will be rewarded for giving it 100% but never true. -Management thinks it can make up for treating their employees like dirt by buying them things (pizza, cupcakes, ski trip) -Vapid
