Pros

Amazing culture and the people genuinely love what they do. Real opportunity to affect a growing industry. Lots of independence with little micromanaging. Management gives opportunity for growth to people based on talent and the work you do -- not credentials or sucking up, which is frankly extremely refreshing. Talented people often work their way up from entry level to senior level quickly, which is also awesome.

Cons

Despite being a tech company, evolution is slow and C-suite is often reactive, not proactive. There's been some unnecessary drama with turnover, but that's on individual employees not management.

Pros

Free food and soda, unlimited pto, 2.5x overtime pay, education reimbursement, paid MacBook, paid relocation, housing assistance

Cons

Poor training, punished for leaving office at end of shift improperly without any lockdown procedure training. Reported security concern but fired for not reporting it properly, although it was reported to the security team. Promised promotion after 1 year and management ignored me following up on that. If you work there and leave a bad review on here they threaten your employment unless you remove the review. Mansgement call people sex offenders without proof.
