Tripadvisor reviews

I'll start with the job part. Because I work on a small team I'm often able to take total ownership of what I'm working on which I find to be incredibly motivating. I can come up with an idea and literally see it through from start to finish. Obviously there are always times when I have to work on someone else's project or pitch in on other things, but generally speaking I've been allowed to essentially manage myself on a lot of things and I really like that. It's very, very rewarding to see something through from beginning to end and to know that if there's something you want to try there's a very good chance you'll have the opportunity. You don't need to be a silent robot here which was my biggest complaint about previous jobs and something I find incredibly demoralizing. Personally, even though there is a lot of work, I also feel very well compensated. I've worked just as hard at other places for peanuts so there you go. OK, now the perks--they're insane. Gym memberships, pet insurance, an iPod when you join, even help with adoption if you want it. Don't even get me started on Christmas.

Decent benefits and advancement opportunities. Compensation is fair, and culture is pretty laid-back and open. Things get done, often quickly, and employee input is valued. Teams usually work together well without unhealthy competition. I like the people -- a lot.
