Pros

- Challenging and rewarding job: what you develop has a real impact on thousands of customers that use video conference every day - Very flexible work hours. You can work from the office or remotely (not necessarily from home) - Amazing coworkers and great culture. - Free lunch and snacks

Cons

- Since there are coworkers all over the world, it's sometimes difficult to sync with people in different time zones. Also, because of this, meetings can sometimes happen at not very convenient times

Pros

- Very relaxed environment. Micromanaging is not a thing here. - Career growth opportunities are possible. Management cares about where you want to go in your career, not only what TokBox needs from you. Very supportive in that way. - People are respectful and care about one another like a family. - Low on politics. There are some, but it's not like I've seen at other companies. - Ability to choose the types of projects you are most interested in. Things aren't just assigned to you. You preference matters. - Engineering driven, which is good if you're an engineer. - Very smart passionate coworkers. - Free lunch and it's delicious. - Free work phone - Nice health benefits and perks

Cons

- Communication between departments could be improved. - Collaboration could be better between teams who are one their own islands working on their own projects. Some missed opportunities occur when people work siloed. This is being worked on though. - Company future is a bit ambiguous. In tech things are always changing. - Owned by Telefonica so a bit of big brother stuff, but not terrible. - Engineering driven, which can be challenging for less technical employees.
