Pros
Incredible coworkers, fun atmosphere, flexibility to work from home when needed, dog-friendly office, potential trips to Israel (depending on your position), great outings & happy hours, beer cart Thursdays
Cons
- felt like it was Israel vs. the NYC office especially when it came to hiring for team members - The office is a bit too small - and needs more space! Sometimes it's very difficult to book conference rooms b/c people who haven't booked them take them over and refuse to give them up. - unclear communication from the Israeli office -- depending on the department, things can seem opaque and unclear -- and you find out changes at the last minute (obviously this is not indicative of ALL of Outbrain - but I def. see it in some departments) - this past year saw a lot of turn-over -- people felt unsupported in their roles & left to go elsewhere - convoluted & duplicative processes -- sometimes other people in other departments would do the same work I'd be doing. Communication is often broken between teams - compensation is below market rates
