Pros

-- Great health insurance and 401k match. -- Most white collar employees get their own office. -- Pantry of snacks and beverages, including alcohol. -- Great community and engagement programs like volunteering and yoga. -- Good work/life balance.

Cons

-- Management is often noncommunicative with their staff, leading to poor decision-making. -- Compensation is lower than the industry average for entry and mid-level positions. -- Good work and going beyond your job expectation is often unappreciated and unrewarded. -- Open positions are often filled with external candidates when better or equally qualified candidates are present internally. -- Tenure-based promotions for management are overwhelmingly more common than merit based promotions entry and mid-level employees.

Pros

The People - I've had the opportunity to work closely with a cross function group of employees both in Austin and in the field. Every person I've met has a passion for our product and the impact that it has on people's lives. Work/Life Balance - Coming from software it's been truly eye-opening to see a come that not only talks about balance but practices it. Even the executives are out of the office by 6pm most days. I no longer receive emails @ 11 pm or over the weekend. On the rare occasion I do, no one expects a response till Monday. The Benefits package is stellar

Cons

Due to the company's rapid growth, and globally dispersed offices, there are a few minor growing pains. Cross team and cross geography communication can be clunky. Many of the tools and processes are a bit manual for an organization our size IMHO. (Though I'm beginning to see a shift toward automation in a few key department.)
