Hi, this is Rakesh, the CEO of SnapStream. I also run our sales team, which it appears you worked on. I do expect a lot from the people who I work with. Sorry you didn't like working with me or working at SnapStream. For anyone forming an opinion about the company based on this review, I'll tell you that many have been successful on our sales team. On our current 6 person team, the shortest tenure is 2 years and the longest is 7 years.

Pros

Some of the most amazing people working alongside you. They have a monopoly on their product, and it just works.

Cons

Only take this job if you are an agreeable "yes" person. Please check the employee turnaround rate before joining this company. The company has a policy of hiring and firing within a year. Being too forward thing will result in your firing. You will then see your ideas and material being used anyway, being credited to someone else.

Pros

One of my favorite things about SnapStream is that the code I write directly influences and helps our clients. It is a great feeling to see a feature I've implemented as the highlight of one of our blog posts or to hear from a colleague about how our clients are excited for it. There are a huge variety of problems to solve and I am not stuck only working on one aspect of our product. Instead I get to do full stack programming and I've learned a ton while doing so. Our senior developers are amazing and are an excellent source of knowledge when Stack Overflow fails to deliver. We have continuous integration, an excellent suite of unit tests, and a top notch QA team. If you have an expertise outside of general programming, SnapStream will try to give projects that can tie your expertise and the SnapStream product together. SnapStream really pampers the developers. I have two 27 inch 1440p monitors, a huge desk, and a high powered PC. Both the hours and the dress code are relaxed. There are snacks in the kitchen and plenty of great places to eat nearby. There is a nice emphasis on fitness. SnapStream provides gym memberships and a weekly personal trainer.

Cons

My computer is too fast to use compiling as an excuse to slack off. On a more serious note, SnapStream has been around for over a decade, but still has that startup feeling. Personally, I really enjoy it, but I know that the startup culture is not for everyone.
