Pros

-The people are so nice it makes my friends outside work look like terrible people. It's seriously the friendliest crew I've ever seen. -The product itself is very uniquely situated in the ad tech/ publisher world and has a promising trajectory. -The offices (NYC and SF) are works of art. There is something very "Pinterest" about the design philosophy. Also Pinterest seems to have a pathological obsession with artsy staircases. -The work life balance is amazing. Coming from a smaller, more startup-y company, it's a little weird. Sometime I look around at 5:30 and there is almost nobody left in the office. -They feed us and the food is seriously top notch. -The employees here have all sorts of backgrounds, some relevant and some not, but they all have one thing in common: they are super smart. -The upper management really cares about their employees. It's surprising how far out of their way they go to make sure their DR's are happy and fulfilled. -The founders are seriously good dudes. They aren't just good at their jobs; they are genuinely kind and honest. It comes through in their tone, their actions, and the way other speak about them.

Cons

-A couple days a week, we run out of avocados.

Pros

WLB Remote work (which is slowly ending). Strong ICs

Cons

Poor leadership vision, strategy, and execution. Rebranding products that already exist as net new to chase a headline. Unclear career growth unless you are internally connected to “the right people”. Middle management that is there to boost their career / repackage IC ideas as their own with zero credit. RTO rollout was botched leading to senior sellers leaving. Lots of toxic positivity and virtue signaling
