Pros

- Very bright and competent people - Competitive benefits package - High degree of professionalism - Open communication from management

Cons

Company culture is a bit stiff. OpenTable is trying to be a fun Silicon Valley company, but this isn't felt across all departments and at times feels like it's forced.

Pros

* Location is good - close to BART * The stock was high - it could go there again * They don't seem to care if you don't work long hours * Most of the employees are cool and competent * The company has a great market niche

Cons

* The engineering VP rules by fear * One of the engineering directors is the most inaccurate yet condescending person you will ever meet (i.e. he is frequently wrong but talks down to you even when you are right - it's quite amazing) * You won't be trusted to think and do a your job without being micromanaged * Favoritism is frequent and out of control * You will be sacrificed to 'the bus' and demoted if a manager needs to lay blame on someone else (even if said manager was micromanaging you) * The technology is about 10 years behind current times and no one in management is in a hurry to change that
