Pros
I am SO incredibly grateful and happy to be at Medallia. My beliefs about how work life should be that were previously met with skepticism and cynicism ACTUALLY HAPPENS at Medallia. It's fun, exciting, silly, crazy, casual, productive, with a dash of motivating stress. I truly feel lucky to call myself a Medallian. Yes, you can totally sing out loud at your desk and people will join in. Yes, you can totally make guac at 3 pm and share them at the giant kitchen islands. Yes, you can be insanely brilliant yet super fun & down to earth at the same time. Yes, you can totally communicate w/ your boss with just GIFs. And no, this is not a place for people who are political, cynical, or complacent. The leadership is constantly looking for ways to improve both themselves and the employees, and I feel that everyone's voice & opinion is accounted for at every level (thanks to our relatively small company size).
Cons
As a startup going through tremendous growth to become a tech company (some say we're already there! :D ), there are always moving pieces and un-organized bottlenecks here and there. The company should continue to focus on protecting its special culture as we grow and fine-tune the different departments.
