Pros
I have years of experience working in both start-up company settings and larger structured corporations, but I personally have grown the most since I have worked here. I have been here for over a year and witnessed a lot of change in a short amount of time, but in my personal opinion, it is more a reflection of the industry and the type of unsavory characters that sneak through the ranks. Here are my top pros here: - premium brand - team environment - ability to contribute a lot, if you want to - motivated and passionate employees (most of the negative reviews were left by people who expected to coast, eat snacks, gossip and collect paychecks in lieu of learning and developing into an invaluable team member) - health benefits - science-backed - best in class design team
Cons
Every company has its challenges, and I'm not a shill so I'll list some of the opportunities for growth. - Retention - this place is not for everyone, so again, some people who come from larger companies may have expected more structure, or a manager to protect them from what little work they have been doing (the posers get exposed quickly) but we loyal employees are always the one who have to pick up the slack or listen to a new manager try to spew his or her past company's rah-rah mantra at us. I'm sorry that their bubble will eventually burst, because the same formula to success may not work everywhere. - The snacks and meals used to flow abundantly, now we have to buy our own protein shakes, which is a harsh first world reality for some of us. - Hard work and good ideas can slip through the cracks and resurface later, when a manager decides that it was their idea all along
