Pros

AMAZING coworkers, I have never loved people so much and they have truly become my out of work friends. I have learned so much from working here. The office is conveniently located and good benefits. If you're fresh out of college, great first job to have.

Cons

-Customers are treated so poorly and the sales team is told to ignore someone after signing them up (they're going to tell you this has changed but it hasn't) -To fix reviews (on Google too - go check them out) they said they were going to pay people on the streets of Little Italy $10 to write them but instead I believe they just made up fake accounts and wrote a bunch -Any problems that there are they blame on the fact that it's a startup. Now I have worked at startups before and there's a difference between change/growing pains and the people in upper management having no idea what they're doing -CEO has a threaten & intimidation mentality. I can't tell you the amount of times I've heard him say "accept this or leave now" -When you bring this review up in your interview they will brush it aside and say that there are growing pains cus it's a startup and it's not for everyone but that things are changing and people are so happy here and always hit their goals etc. (they lie, a lot, even though they always say they're transparent) -They fired the entire Austin office to "cut costs" on what seems like a whim
