Pros

Sonos takes an approach to transparency that most companies claim, but few can execute when push comes to shove. Sonos has evolved into a culture of diligent owners who understand the choices made in order to continue leading the industry. They champion and recognize good work with internal opportunities and continue to change the game.

Cons

Trust in employees as owners can sometimes prove risky with amount of freedom granted. On the other end of the spectrum for some departments, work/life balance is also often compromised during ramp-up times.

Pros

Great culture. People are humble.

Cons

In some teams engineers have to find projects themselves instead of waiting for roadmap which is good also but sometimes frustrating.

Pros

Good work. Passionate people. Good product. Remote.

Cons

Some bad managers. They lost their footing resulting in lack of company vision. Struggled to find working styles that elevated the company (they wanted to grow yet operate like a start up)
