Pros

It is located in Financial district

Cons

There are a lot of envious people working here who have temper and additute issue, especially the sales team. The projects never get done because there are no firm decisions. One gang member within the team who is favored makes the decision, and will become enemies with you if you have an opinion. The tech team by any means have the educational experience or the technical background to make decisions. Pepper the robot is a joke, and I don't see it making it through the robot industry.

Pros

- Flexible work schedule schedule and easy going, fun culture. - Great work life balance. Actually the best I've seen at any company. - Leadership team works hard to consistently improve and always open to feedback. - Company promotes from within so definitely many growth opportunities. - Many exciting products being worked on so this is a very exciting time in the company. - Holiday celebrations, off-sites, occasional catered lunches, and more... - Great office location and beautiful office with snacks, water, coffee, etc.. in the kitchen.

Cons

Company constantly evolving and things can change overnight sometimes, so you have to learn to adapt quickly.
