Pros

- Remote work - Competitive benefits package (declining in quality) - Plenty of downtime (nice) due to inefficient management (not nice)

Cons

- Little to no coordination within or across teams - Low, uncompetitive wages defended by "but the benefits" - Managers hiding disciplinary notes until they suddenly become relevant for suppressing compensation - Being laughed at by managers during compensation discussions - Remote work is used as a compensation bargaining tool, despite it being the industry standard for years and cheaper for the company - Outdated, overpriced software - Routinely exploits private-vs-public business regulations despite publicly announcing intentions to go public - Employee evaluation metrics are inconsistent, shortsighted, hypocritical, and intentionally biased against the employee - Employee skills will go unused and degrade until employees are no longer competitive candidates for similar positions at other companies - Provided technology (laptops, monitors, etc) is outdated, and requesting new tech/peripherals is clunky and dissuading - Company publicly champions its core values (authenticity, accountability, curiosity, passion) while management privately violates them

Pros

Benefits: health coverage, on-site gym, childcare, healthcare center, and more. Work-life balance: predictable hours, flexibility for parents and a culture that doesn't expect you to grind 60-hour weeks.

Cons

Compensation lags the market, slow career advancement and promotions can take years. Change-resistant culture and new ideas move slowly. Leadership team manages up to just one person.
