Pros

Agile environment. Work from home

Cons

Super volatile environment. I resigned from a 6 year full time position with the promise of a great job that would support me while getting up to speed. I started working there and was given no help from my team or manager to get going. They are super unorganized. Was told they didn’t have enough work for me after a month and laid me off

Pros

The gym was pretty nice to have during a pandemic

Cons

I saw a lot of really good people get pushed around at this company. Management is incredibly toxic and self serving. The leadership here has no real interest in building a good product. They only are interested in making themselves look good in front of the CEO. In the time that I was there essentially every idea they had was tried out to about a 15% completion, leaving no room for any real changes... good or bad. Hence the deterioration of their site and app. A few more gold nuggets... I saw upper management turn on each other, often. They would fight and talk badly behind each others backs, until the good ones would get pushed out of the company. I also saw them lay off pregnant women and folks whose wives were 9 months pregnant.

Pros

None. The gym used to be, but they sold the building and down graded the gym.

Cons

Horrible leadership and even worse management. Absolutely terrible pay and raises/bonuses were cut even after large layoffs all to make room for expensive new leadership while completely forgetting about their loyal employees. They sell the unlimited PTO but good luck trying to get any time off. There is no work life balance (I worked on Thanksgiving) and while working from home is nice, the company did nothing to help employees transition until 4-5 months after working from home started leaving almost everyone on their own to try and set up suitable work areas. Hard work is put in only to be scrapped because leadership didn’t want to properly invest and completely pivot to a new idea with no data or plan. Then, that plan fails and their off to chase the next shiny object. I could go on, but I hope you get the picture.
