Pros

Relaxed atmosphere Freedom to perform your job the way you see fit High salaries Full benefits Stable company backed by a billion dollar company

Cons

Constant fear of losing your job. You are forced to sign an at will contract and I have seen people fired without a reason. I was constantly watching every action of mine to ensure I never gave them a reason to let me go. It worked until they decided to get a new parent company and they just let everyone go without a reason. I have seen top performing sales reps let go because they just weren't liked that much. I have seen people forced out and let go for absolutely no reason. It's a scary place to be

Pros

Unlimited vacation policy; fun and quirky group of people; you get to talk about food and dining all day long. Urbanspoon is small enough that you get to know everyone who works there, but is backed by a larger company so you have the resources to get things done.

Cons

The product is outdated and it feels like all of the competitors just keep passing us by.
