Pros

Free Parking downtown Free lunch (when in the office)

Cons

Some of the original employees can't move on to their new roles. Pay scales are all over and not balanced. Some people get bonuses, some don't. I asked for a performance bonus mixed with my salary and was told" Root doesn't do bonuses" If you don't want to work 15 hour days, you will be frowned upon.

Pros

Remote tech company It was cool to have monthly meetings with the CEO . They kept you in the loop of what was going on

Cons

My manager was horrible . Instead of development and truly helping the team we felt as if he was just against us Pay was lower and work load was higher
