Pros

They have some good products(which they did not build) but other than that I experienced nothing positive while working there. I guess you could say the anxiety and depression drugs I now have to take as a result of working here could be considered "positive". Other than that it was nothing but negative.

Cons

As many others have noted, the CEO has absolutely zero emotional intelligence and is COMPLETELY out of touch with his employees. He used every COVID19 update email to remind the company of our $1B revenue goals instead of actually supporting his employees. While the company was still profitable he decided to lay off 20% of the entire company(April 30th) and he will do it again as soon as he thinks he can take the company public, if he thinks it will make him and his investors more money. Contrary to their claimed culture of "having each other's back", Mark Briggs will NOT have your back. They have actually created a culture of paranoia and fear of losing your job every day.

Pros

The culture here is great, everyone is very excited and knowledgeable, and people really want to collaborate. The products are interesting and there is a real push to innovate and build something great. I have learned a ton while being here.

Cons

Standard issues with a mid/large company: changing priorities and getting pulled in different directions. Too many meetings.

Pros

Great people to work with, great office

Cons

Had several layoffs or 'restructurings' during my tenure. No 401k match.
