Pros

Real company, real brand, real mission. I believe it when the founders say that they want this company to be an anchor company in Boston that is still going strong in another two or three decades, and I believe they'll pull it off. Great team of very smart people, extremely selective about who they hire. Everyone is devoted to the mission, for the most part everyone has a sense of mutual respect and helpfulness towards each other. You can't work here and not learn a dozen new things every day.

Cons

Long hours, high expectations for output. Certain "front line" sales & services positions are tough to succeed in. Some departments and people have an air of superiority, like their work contributes more to the bottom line than everyone else does.

Pros

The teams you work with are phenomenal. The knowledge combination between an internal customer facing teams, engineering product development teams, and Sales are unmatched.

Cons

Excessive use of PIPs to oust employees after multiple high revenue launches, with no explanation, actual documentation, or factual data. Reviews have been adjusted to allow for terminations post pre-approved leaves. Salaries are a joke. You are always in a cover yourself mode 24/7. Management reviews are consistently a 2 or 3 out of 5 no matter what. If a team decides you aren’t in the group, management will put you on a “unofficial” PIP without telling you, in order to surprise you at a later date. Even if they are unfounded. Beware of possibility of negative backlash post launches. They will feel the need to assign blame ( such as for timelines or issues related to bugs). Regardless of performance or level of involvement. This is an enormous company with many large paths for career advancement. But micro management is rampant, leaving little room for doing the daily expectations of your actual role. This degrades your opportunities for career advancement.
