Pros

UACF/MapMyFitness will continue to evolve from a powerhouse to a behemoth in the wearables and health and fitness data space. I am confident they will globally dominate with the latest acquisitions and the release of UA Record. The mission and vision is clear and innovative-Make the everyday athlete a better version of themselves and UACF is well on their way!

Cons

Management is very top heavy and very isolated from one another. Too many cooks in the kitchen that have been cobbled together from different acquisitions. They have their owns camps they want to protect their own key players, not always the house. Management style, for a certain faction, is rooted in unrealistic expectations, lingering threats, management inexperience, unprofessional discriminatory speech/behavior, and false sincerity for one’s professional success. Management finds this type of behavior acceptable as it's "Hardcore" "Intense" "Winning" and "Competitive" as one would be on a professional sports team. Team members' hard work, efforts, relationships and traction were not valued but were given to other “protected” and tenured underperformers as others were bullied out of the company.

Pros

From a brand marketing perspective, UA couldn't be hotter right now. Almost worth taking a job there for that reason alone. The Quantified Self movement is cool, fun and growing. The HQ office in Austin is awesome. Expense/travel budgets are decent.

Cons

-Zero, literally Zero, training and/or development. The 'Tribal Knowledge' factor is rampant. -Throwing people under the bus is common practice. If something goes wrong, it's somebody else's fault. It starts with the leadership team and trickles down to everyone else. -The only common theme is change. -Revenue is king, but there is no CRO and no new revenue ideas. They've been beating the marketing "Fitness Challenge" to death. -UA spent 3/4 of $1B to acquire MMF, MFP and Endomondo users. Only a matter of time before the ROI fails to meet expectations and heads begin rolling. -I doubt Mike and/or Albert Lee stay there for long. Losing them would hurt the business. Go look at the Glassdoor reviews for MyFitnessPal and compare them to MapMyFitness...you'll get the picture.

Pros

Good benefits and pay is OK. Fairly relaxed environment for a small company. Feels good to work on a product you can use for yourself.

Cons

Missing strong technical leaders, so devs waste time wondering in the sticks. The communication barrier between the Denver and Austin offices is annoying.
