Pros

Selling a product that you can really get behind and believe in. Having an opportunity to really impact our space with something innovative. Start Up environment where your contribution really matters. Opportunity to help people find good jobs and employers find good people. Great company activities and recognition for job well done.

Cons

Processes not as clearly defined (It's a start-up). Constant changes to seating, processes (It's a start-up). Who get's what accounts aren't as clearly defined as they could be. It is a grind. If you aren't ready to work hard do not apply.

Pros

I have a coolest manager and CEO ever - No yelling, no screaming, no micromanage. He treats me with respect. He is the most competent manager I have ever worked with. Education bonus - The company promotes and encourages employees to get more training and taking job related courses. Reimburse employees with tuition up to maximum amount allowed by IRS Food and snacks - Monday organic fruit, Wed. bagel day, Fri. donuts day(may need to reconsider), endless chips, breakfast bars, cup noodles, soda (not for me) and bottle walter... Office - The office is bright and fresh. Technology - The company heavily invests in most current software to automate everything as much as possible. Company party - not many companies in these days would spend money on employees anymore. Open minded management team - managers are very open minded with any new ideas

Cons

-Need to spend a little more time to bridge sales team and engineer team.

Pros

This is my first time working at a tech company, and it's a start-up. So far, so great! Really. I am treated with fairness, respect, equality and I use my brain everyday to help others around the world with big goals in mind at all times. As someone who has struggled in their career, it's great to produce a product and share it with the world to help others in this time of ongoing economic uncertainty. I have many friends who need a job and all of them find Glassdoor incredible helpful once they visit the site. As for as pros, it's relaxing, comfortable, creative and I get to work from home at times, too. Best work environment I've been in by far. It's exciting to see where we will go and be on the forefront of making it happen, too!

Cons

I do now understand what people mean by "start-up culture." Not a bad thing by any means, but we do work hard and try our best to perfect everything so we can share it with the world. As we grow, it gets tougher to remember everyone's name, but that's a good thing too, that we continue to expand so rapidly. I think senior management will do a good job at keeping the small family-like culture in tact as some people worry about that draining as any small company increases in size.
