Pros

Product is the best wysiwyg website creator out there. Been using it since 2009. If you're an engineer and you live in San Francisco, the corporate office is where you want to be. The perks and culture at that office seem like a dream.

Cons

Scottsdale office culture a disaster. Promotes diversity and fun, yet when you have a type of fun that isn't in the confines of what a few select managers deem as appropriate, you're chastised for it. There was a black sales manager there who would use his energy to hype up his team which actually led to increased productivity, but the white male managers would consistently make him go on walks around the building to tell him to calm down. It was really odd, his team was doing better than it ever had, and his energy outbursts were of an innocent nature in the name of creating a positive energy for the team. That one scenario seemed really oppressive in retrospect. Eventually the black manager was fired. It's also not very diverse. All of the managers are white males besides the white female HR manager and white female front office coordinator who is much more qualified than to be seemingly relegated to food prep & Diamondbacks ticket overseer. I had a very positive outlook when I first began there about two years ago, it seemed like a fun, modern software company to work for. But once you were there and experiencing it, you start to notice very subtle oppression and micro-aggression towards the employees. If you didn't speak exactly in the tone and energy management used, it was almost as if you were made to feel stupid and inadequate.

None none none none none

Cons

This has nothing to do with age but it is a very immature place to work. Ive been here for 5 years and seen people come and go not because of performance but because of how you fit in. Its a popularity contest and not based on merit. The management is completely vile. Ive found other work now and glad I can finally say something. Even Godaddy is better than this place.
