Pros

- Great environment to work in - Mostly enjoyable people - Good benefits - Daily lunches - In building gym Overall a pretty decent place to work.

Cons

In a transition period trying to become a bigger player in the jobs and recruiting markets which leads to canned projects on a whim. The company uses a top-down approach to many projects in order to get buy in. There also tends to be an excessive amount of planning that leads into a shortened time frame to complete your goals.

Pros

Glassdoor changed my life for the better, both professionally and personally. Nothing compares to the culture. I've never met so many smart, hard working and mission driven people in my life. It's truly a unique place.

Cons

We're at a pivotal point as a company, which is very exciting, but also means we're dealing with more change than usual. Communication regarding plans and team expectations could be better especially for remote workers.

I’m glad to hear Glassdoor is the right place for you-- rest assured I have spent a lot of time thinking about how to unite our remote workers and cross-continental offices. As we grow, it’s important for our communication to get better, not harder. This is something we’re taking seriously and actively experimenting with to see what works for our teams here and abroad. Please keep the feedback coming!
