Pros

Great benefits and campus, opportunities for job progression or lateral changes over time. Good products.

Cons

Management musical chairs. Constant reorganizations, management changes. Benefits and perks not as good for employees working in field offices away from HQ. These employees are also overlooked for key jobs. Company is owned by two founders -- no board of directors, no employee ownership, no external oversight of any kind. Makes campus feel like a kingdom run by CEO with no moderating influences.

Pros

Benefits: health coverage, on-site gym, childcare, healthcare center, and more. Work-life balance: predictable hours, flexibility for parents and a culture that doesn't expect you to grind 60-hour weeks.

Cons

Compensation lags the market, slow career advancement and promotions can take years. Change-resistant culture and new ideas move slowly. Leadership team manages up to just one person.
