Pros

Amazing coworkers, snacks, great location, good WIFi, a dog friendly office, and you might get a free trip to Berlin!

Cons

This company has a problem with upper management. All the problems trickle down from the top. The CEO is a volatile, unpredictable person who often screams at his employees. The executive team is an exclusive club that often makes junior and mid level employees feel uncomfortable with their Caligula/Sodom & Gomorrah lifestyle. Everyone drinks too much but because of all the drama and chaos, it's not surprising. The company changes its goals and strategies literally every two months, leaving junior and mid level employees confused and scared for their future. The tragedy of it all is that Good&Co attracts genuine talent. Perhaps if the executive team were more genuinely concerned about the needs of their employees, it could be a more successful company.

Pros

Let's start with the pros: - new office in Soma featuring stylish exposed brick, sonos speakers in the office, occasional catered lunch (typical SF tech stuff) - many are attracted to Good&Co because of the (seemingly) positive mission - improving workplace culture, finding your best employer fit, etc. (Read more below to discover the irony of it all!) - there are some great co-workers (but most leave after a short period) - dog friendly office

Cons

- incredible employee turnover. when I first started there was a mass exodus of people quitting and now company is currently experiencing another wave of exits. talent is walking right out of the door. - despite the company's mission, this organization is a hotbed of toxic politics primarily due to the volatile CEO. depending on his mood, you're either a 'rockstar' or you're useless. the CEO badmouths ex-employees during meetings as he is in utter denial of -why- people are quitting and refuses to acknowledge the issues. - most of upper management is clueless when it comes to creating actionable business plans or go-to-market strategies. projects are a disaster. - constant refusal to allow employees to partake in employee development courses or training despite claiming they'll provide "whatever you need to be amazing at your job."
