Pros
I have worked for many years as an engineer at Perfect Market, which was acquired recently by Taboola. It was great to realize how much of a match the culture, drive and passion that both companies shared making for an excellent acquisition. Working at Taboola now is casual, fun and challenging in a good engineering way. I would probably compare it most to the type of culture and work ethic you would see at companies like Facebook and Google. Light weight management that is very engineering strong making great decision for the company, which make sense. Engineers are driven and passionate on what they do. Culture is casual, motivated and people really do care about each other. Our CEO Adam is not only a great speaker but passionative, driven and very engaged with making our vision happen. As an Engineer I have the ability to work on frontend or backend or both in an agile fashion, which not only keeps me engaged but also sharpens my skill set to new tech. Taboola management works very closely with engineering so ideas can go upward and help shape product direction. It really is a great time to work for Taboola and I would definitely recommend it to any engineers out there that want to make a difference, ramp up their skills and work with a great team.
Cons
The office location in Pasadena is not that ideal as most tech companies are on the westside. However the location is right next to a lot of restaurants, which make it nice at lunch time.
