Free food. Some really smart and talented individuals who aren't in management. Growing company in which the experience can be quite valuable.

Not the best

Pros

In-house cheap lunch. They reward employees with alcohol. Jesse Hertzberg is a great dude.

Cons

The product is obsolete and overpriced (Facebook Live). They think they are a big player in the market but they aren't. 12+ hour workdays. L-train to Bushwick. Low base salary compared to other SaaS companies. Culture is meh and morale is low. Sales management is jumping ship.
