Pros

Relaxed about hours. No one bugs you about when you get in, which prompted me to be more punctual. Also, lunch is provided every day along with snacks and the view from the office is good.

Cons

They adopt the 11 month contract business model so they can have you as a full time employee but they don't have to offer you benefits or days off. The recruiting agency that supplies staff offers insurance that isn't really insurance and SOME holidays kick in after about 6 months. Still, there's a fundamental disregard for you if you're not an engineer or an accountant or VP of something. There's a lot of theater about establishing a cohesive brand and vision but putting it into practise is another thing.

Audible is an Amazon company. I think as a whole, this company attracts people who are kind and fun spirited. Good product.

Pros

Audible is an Amazon company. I think as a whole, this company attracts people who are kind and fun spirited. Some who come from other big tech companies may think us as nerdy or quiet but I think it’s the lack of toxic compatibility that you tend to see at those other companies. I purely enjoy working with my colleagues and the work that I do, which I can hardly say about the other big tech companies I worked at. Free lunch and commuter/parking benefit

Cons

5-day RTO. The headquarter is in Newark, NJ. The commute can be hard for some.
