Pros

If you like drinking and smoking cigs, maybe you'll like it here.

Cons

I think the oldest person at this company is in their 30s, and that's including the Founders/CEOs. And it SHOWS. I really don't think they have any idea what they're doing, it's like a playground. Upper management is very cliquey, since they've been here from the early stages. The problem with that is feedback from unhappy employees gets unheard, and they'd rather have a high turnover rate than fix the very obvious problem that is reeking from upper management. The way this company is run makes upper management feel untouchable. If you are looking for career progression and eventually want to manage a team or hold more of a leadership position, you're SOL here and should look elsewhere. Current management is very power hungry and has major control issues. You will never feel valued here as you will always be put in your place doing their grunt work. From personal experience, they are more of a boss and anything but a leader.

Pros

I think what they're trying to do can work but it is not a good place to work.

Cons

No work life balance. Like I said above, unless you came from a frat, enjoy drinking wine coolers and do not have a family, you will not enjoy working here. They micromanage and it was truly a terrible experience b/c of one specific manager.

It's Ok - Not the Best

Pros

The only pro would have to be that positions are remote.

Cons

The company culture is not one to thrive in. Sometimes it feels like a hostile work environment with no connection with employees or times to connect with other co-workers. CEO is missing and the COO is the only present individual.
