Pros

Great product Free catered lunch great internship program and community involvement

Cons

Micromanagement in seemingly ALL departments! No work life balance. working from home in accounting? Forget about it! Antiquated work process! Slow to implement improvements. "Make the donuts" type of attitude even though they say they don't want that as a culture. Get ready to print print print and pass paper around for signatures! Management sets bad precedence with work expectations, including mandatory OT after PTO and/or working while on PTO Top heavy in almost all departments No chance to advance your career Titles are a scam, Director and VP titles are handed out like candy! And NO ONE Works! You may have manager in your title but have 0 reports. Everyone is alwaysed backed up and missing deadlines asking for exceptions! Low morale from over worked under appreciated employees. You will get trapped in a position if you don't become buddy buddy with the right manager.

Pros

Audible is an Amazon company. I think as a whole, this company attracts people who are kind and fun spirited. Some who come from other big tech companies may think us as nerdy or quiet but I think it’s the lack of toxic compatibility that you tend to see at those other companies. I purely enjoy working with my colleagues and the work that I do, which I can hardly say about the other big tech companies I worked at. Free lunch and commuter/parking benefit

Cons

5-day RTO. The headquarter is in Newark, NJ. The commute can be hard for some.
