Pros

-Office location. -Travel to manufacturing locations. -8-5 work mentality.

Cons

-The new office is sterile, and a lot was promised that never came to fruition. -Pay isn't competitive. -We're now hiring a bunch of Apple people. The company touts its "human-centric design process" and now they're bringing in a bunch of development folks from Apple, the antithesis of that mentality. The development process has already shifted to be more like Apple (internal management systems, don't give a crap about what our customers want, etc.). -There are so many competitors in this space, it's whack-a-mole trying to keep everyone in check.

Pros

The WTC office is nice

Cons

Most recently Casper moved to a 401k plan that is highly restrictive. It doesn’t allow selecting individual funds to build portfolio, and the funds selected have extremely high cost ratio. Looks like an extreme and desperate measure to save on admin overhead. Also, every year Casper discounts gets deeper and more frequently. The ads are boring and monotonous. Look at Casper a few years back and what it looks like now.
