Pros

Free food I guess, there are some really great people.

Cons

Could not say enough bad things. Snakey managers, verbally abusive people, all around one of the worst place I've ever worked. My manager asked me about my goals for next quarter outside of my current responsibilities. I told them and said I wanted to finish out my current projects and start that project once the new quarter started. Imagine my surprise when the new quarter started and I found out that my manager had stolen my project idea and run with it on their own, presenting it to management as their own idea while utilizing all the documentation I'd created. Then was told I couldn't work on it and implied a layoff. I had to scramble to find a new project before that happened. Absolutely heinous. If you're enjoying working here then you're still drinking the coolaid.

Pros

Some of the people are kind, intelligent, and very thoughtful, which made the rest manageable when it unbearable Fancy perks: food, coffee bar

Cons

This is the worst company I have ever worked for. Inexperienced leadership and middle management creates an air of stress, anxiety, and frustration across all areas of the workplace. People often snap at each other, burn out, and successes are rarely recognized or celebrated. There is no sense of team unity. I even witnessed a monkey being brought into the office to be posed for photos during an end of quarter celebration. There is little flexibility for people not being in-office due to family/outside issues. There are too many meetings with no clear organization or purpose, and messages/emails are often sent late into the night, on holidays, and on weekends. I wish someone had warned me not to work here before I started, it was some of the worst days of my life.
