Pros

- short work hours - benefits are same as other companies

Cons

- Unqualified management often with no experience/education in areas they are managing - Aggressive culture where people work against each other instead of working as a team - Blatant discrimination - behind closed doors reviews and promotions are highly subjective and based on non PC/HR compliant reasons -Uneven leveling, titles make no sense - some managers doing entry level analyst work while another manager is doing director level work because they will not get promoted, see above - Bizarre focus on yearly goal creation. There are meetings about meetings about how the staff will create their goals. Sometimes there are multiple day meetings about how goals will be filled out. - Unusually high manual processes for complicated accounting processes. Automation is non-existent everything is basically done on excel - High turnover of qualified staff, people leaving within months of starting - You will not find the smartest or brightest of silicon valley in this finance org

Pros

Leading edge, cool place to work, trying to change the world. Talked about as a "destination" company.

Cons

Consistent organizational change that leads to lack of consistency and lack of follow through. The expectation is one of do whatever it takes - sounds exciting and bold, but leads to overwork, lack of balance and burnout.

Cons

If you can't handle a very fast pace then it's not for you.
