Pros

Great and talented people Great to have Google and Sony Music as clients

Cons

Culture looks great on social media, but the leadership should care more about the employees otherwise everyone will continue to leave. There is very little trust from above, way too much micromanagement and for such a young, cool company, there is absolutely no flexibility in how/when you work. Most of the work is done for Google, so there isn’t as much creative freedom as you would think. Any creative projects there are, have short timelines and you have to invest your own time to feel like you are really getting any value out of the work.
