Pros

Flexible vacation, pays well, snacks.

Cons

I honestly thought foursquare would be so great, but I was wrong. Engineering is king there, but also mostly male. They have no initiatives to hire women in engineering and the few women they have are simply by accident. The CEO's flippant attitude in a company meeting when someone asked about this was appalling (When asked about the lack of women in a task force to make major app decisions he said "well that's just the way it is."). Sexual harassment was a major problem and they let the male employees get away with it. I worked way too many hours and was expected to do so, despite being a lower level employee. The sales team was horrendous, full of gossip. Drinking to excess was encouraged. I was honestly embarrassed to work there and left after 7 months.
