Pros

Collaborative environment. Bleeding edge technology; this allows you to advance your career. Educational content subscriptions. Anonymous coworkers feedback so you can be constructive without worry of backlash. Great building location and unique layout. Flex starting time, but core business hours.

Cons

Restrictive medical benefits. Open office layout for easy distraction from peers. Don't convey investment in their staff equally, they pick favorites. Constant re-architecture of code and change of technology for solution, this leads to a lot of rework. This leads to management and leadership being discontent with the state of development. Veneer on top of a corporate setting . Claim "startup culture" but it's still top down where managers treat you like a cog in the wheel. Understaffed in QA. QA staff never understands the work because had too much going on to invest in real quality assurance.

Pros

* Great people to work with. * Collaborative and fun atmosphere. * Upper management that cares about you personally. * Lots of variety.

Cons

* If you're looking to ascend the corporate ladder, not a good option because of flat structure. * Some uncertainty about what Dohmen acquisition will ultimately mean (though not much changed in over a year)
