Pros

I've been at Square for several months and I have to say that it a great place to work. I was worried that 'Unlimited Vacation' meant no vacation, but they truly believe in work-life balance. Before I applied, I had read some bad reviews on Quora about management and hours, however those are from 2012 when the company was expanding quickly and dealing with growing pains. Since then, they've really addressed those issues and made vast improvements. A lot of smart people here doing big things. Surprised by the level of transparency and trust in employees.

Cons

To be honest, the only thing I would like to see is 401k matching. Besides that, the perks and pay are amazing. Excited to see whats next for the company.
