Pros

Great environment, free breakfasts on a Thursday and free drinks and snacks. Flexibility with the hours that I work, you are trusted to do your work and not micro managed. Lots of work has been done to improve collaboration and communication. Employees are involved in making decisions and feedback is always sought. Really generous with training, loads of opportunities to go on conferences, books are bought for you, we have 10% development time and hackathons.

Cons

Nowhere is perfect but it's up to us to help to fix the problems and they let you do it at FanDuel.

Pros

Colleagues who are both smart and genuinely nice A fun office environment, sports-related events A fair amount of non-financial perks Approachable leadership compared to many other large companies Top tier benefit offerings Great employee resource groups

Cons

Constant restructuring of teams, especially in Tech RIFs began happening more regularly almost every year A lot of senior leadership roles are disconnected from processes and work that is happening Business growth is largely outside of the control of employees - there's lot of market and industry based factors to consider D&I is only a priority if it's required to be or if the incentives are right Career growth opportunities are much more competitive and limited at mid/senior levels
