A great place to be

Pros

I find the work fun and the people I work with are great. There are plenty of opportunities to stretch yourself, learn a lot, and work hard, although the environment is usually pretty relaxed. This is the only place I've worked where I can honestly say that the technology is world-class.

Cons

We're experiencing some organizational and collaborative growing pains right now and the benefits could be better: no 401k match and the health benefits aren't amazing.

Pros

Pros are - I get my 5 year paid sabbatical soon then I’m out of here

Cons

leadership is inexperienced and engages in clique-ish management, if you’re not in the “in” group, be prepared to not prosper no matter how hard you work No one knows what they are doing Tired of the 3.5 hour long all hands which is basically an Adam praise contest with all his bros and people getting up there to talk about how great their role is for 30 minutes saved with 5 minutes at the end to tell us how the actual product is doing Selling drones to Israel was announced and it made me uncomfortable Don’t get me started on the benefits that cost hundreds of dollars , no real perks, no 401k match , 1 spouse and 2 dependents can cost you upwards of 1700 per month for the cheap plan As someone who has been here years..I do not recomment

Pros

-Lots of very smart engineers -Cool products with a lot of exciting things in the works -Plenty of opportunities to step up and expand your scope -Everyone is super nice, approachable, willing to help and sociable -Great work-life balance: no one is around on weekends and many work typical 9-5 schedules -New location in San Mateo includes discounted access to the gym right up the hill at the college.

Cons

-Not the most diverse team, especially among execs (plenty of white males) -No 401k match -3 weeks of PTO (plus 1 week of company shutdown in the Summer): not bad, but also no policy for gaining PTO based on tenure at the company.

Pros

- team of motivated, hardworking and supportive people that are all tremendously prideful of the work they do - product is not only fun and easy to use from the perspective of the average consumer, but also has amazing use cases for enterprise customers that other companies in the industry cannot compare to - no egos, everyone is respectful of input and feedback from anyone on the team, no matter of their role in the company

Cons

- additional benefits like a 401k match would be great to have, but confident that's something we'll consider as an organization as we continue to mature

Pros

I have many to list 1- Work life balance is great 2- Great culture - employee engagement activities, together week, meet ups outside of work etc 3- $20 for wellness support 4- Catered daily lunch 5- Great hardware product with some cool software 6- Leader in the industry 7- Have good reputable investors portfolio which keeps us going in full throttle

Cons

I would not say any cons but as we grow up as company, would like to see offerings like 1- 401K match 2- commuter benefits including toll bridge 3- Compensation package ( base salary plus stock options) have room to improve
