Pros

Good salary for the Madison cost of living Nice campus & culinary Collaborative atmosphere (Usually) meaningful work

Cons

Workload can get very intense Upper management is very opaque, resistant to change, and actively quashes dissent. COVID-19 response was very delayed, and permission to work from home is being revoked against health department suggestions.

Pros

Decent pay for a starter job, good food, everyone gets an office (either your own or shared with 1 other person). Fun campus, comfortable physical environment and good amenities. Good insurance benefits. Meaningful, impactful work. And the Madison area is a good place to live despite the inflated housing market.

Cons

Upper management values productivity and profit over the health and safety of employees. Upper management does not respect employees or seriously consider their feedback. Recruiters lie about hours expectations; overtime work of at least a few hours every week is necessary and demanded. PTO benefits meets expectations but are not enough to make up for the extra hours required every week. The response to COVID has been abhorrent. They are requiring us to fully return to working from work with no evidence the pandemic is subsiding and no evidence that working from campus is any more beneficial to employees or the company than working from home, and they aren't even requiring masks. Perceived productivity is actively valued more highly than employee health and safety.

Pros

Compensation is good. Most employees are super smart and nice. Core mission is on its surface good.

Cons

Upper management doesn’t talk to anyone who’s not in upper management. The dev process is cumbersome. Most controversial decisions are explained as “its in our dna, support it!” They treat employees like children and can’t tolerate any dissent or differing opinions.
