Pros

FanDuel is a great place to work, with a CEO genuinely committed to creating a company he would want to work for. They put a big emphasis on hiring the right people for the job, so the people you work with are generally excellent. They provide perks around the office, from table tennis, food, soft drinks and beer, to gourmet coffee. There is little emphasis on employee conformity, and lots of emphasis on personal satisfaction and high quality software.

Cons

Fast company growth has resulted at times in scrambled attempts to control the different projects that are underway. There's technical debt from the company's early days, but with an ongoing project to resolve this. Employee morale has sometimes been low because of recent acquisitions and legal issues, but again the company is trying hard to fix this.

Pros

Colleagues who are both smart and genuinely nice A fun office environment, sports-related events A fair amount of non-financial perks Approachable leadership compared to many other large companies Top tier benefit offerings Great employee resource groups

Cons

Constant restructuring of teams, especially in Tech RIFs began happening more regularly almost every year A lot of senior leadership roles are disconnected from processes and work that is happening Business growth is largely outside of the control of employees - there's lot of market and industry based factors to consider D&I is only a priority if it's required to be or if the incentives are right Career growth opportunities are much more competitive and limited at mid/senior levels
