Great Place to Be

Business Outlook

Pros

So it there was a half star system I would rate GD 4.5. It's not perfect but management tries there best to provide the best environment for us to be happy and do great things. Daily Lunch, snacks, great gym with on staff wellness instructor who runs classes are just few of the highlights. The people here are great and the managers on my team are fantastic. Very easy to work for and as long as you get your work done they are very flexible with how you do it.

Cons

Low base pay compared to similar positions in the bay area, lots of change as company pushes towards IPO which can be stressful. While the office location is in a beautiful spot in Mill Valley, the commute can be tough with bridge traffic.

Business Outlook

Pros

Very simple business model that capitalizes on real trends in consumer behavior. Culture is extremely important. Feedback is constantly being solicited about the direction of the organization Support from marketing. The Glassdoor brand is everywhere which makes selling much easier

Cons

Feedback is always being solicited about the direction of the org (yes, that can be a con). Very competitive market of recruitment advertising. Most companies try to spend less on recruitment, not more. Aggressive growth goals
