Pros

This company has great product and free breakfast. the work environments can be positive depending on what department and who your supervisor is.

Cons

Don't believe everything you read because as soon as this company found out about the honest reviews that were being posted portraying a company that has immense amounts of favoritism and a lack of caring for people as human beings they encouraged people to go write positive reviews. I wouldn't be surprised if they paid them. I'm sure most of these people are worried about being retaliated against if they don't write a positive review. All the reviews describing a spoiled rotten rich boy running the company are true. They definitely favor asian speaking people and if you went to UCLA your in. They treat people like slaves and expect the world from them. the big basketball court and the squandering of money to look important would mane most honest working people sick to their stomach. If you have been there for awhile your allowed to be complacent and treat people like trash. Management is embarrassing at best!!!

Pros

Nice facilities and frequent activities during lunch hours.

Cons

Nearly all work ultimately revolves around meeting the expectations of the CEO/founder, which is challenging because direction can be unclear, inconsistent, and subject to sudden changes. Priorities often shift without communication or explanation, making it difficult to plan ahead or work with any sense of stability. It frequently felt like teams were trying to interpret what the CEO wanted rather than following a coherent strategy. You might be aligned one day only to find the expectations have changed the next, not due to the quality of the work but simply because his ideas had shifted. This created a reactive environment where people were constantly doubting themselves and second-guessing. The result is a workplace where morale is noticeably low and employees appear stressed and uncertain about how to succeed. If you value clarity, consistent communication, or a collaborative culture, this environment may be challenging.
