      It’s routine and does not involve analytics. Soft skills more important.

      Pros

      Flexibility, easy going culture, kind people all and all, mostly helpful staff, very laid back dress code, fun atmosphere for the most part

      Cons

      Unless you are an engineer or that you have a significant amount of work experience with other start-ups, you are not getting equity in the firm at this point.

      Long hours, little recognition, good pay

      Pros

      Above-average compensation in sales Some interesting benefits (such as no dress code or PTO policy) Product is extremely popular and in many ways sells itself Opportunity to work for an industry in its infancy and define standards Media darling company is most likely a great resume-builder Great for entry-levels

      Cons

      It's unfortunate that an organization that prides itself on having a unique culture offers so little in the way of recognition/ professional development/ opportunity for advancement. Promotions are seemingly doled out based on tenure rather than merit. True, this is still a start-up company in a *rapid* growth mode; however, a little pat on the back and some stimulating ongoing training would go a long way for this employee. Any sort of encouraging remark from upper management is accompanied by a reminder that the work is constantly going to increase in volume and difficulty (in case you thought you could stop working for a split-second to reflect, go pee, or eat lunch). Lack of PTO policy seems like a lot of fun at first, but ensuing feelings of guilt for taking a vacation or sick day completely overshadow the novelty. The hours are insane, and there is an unspoken expectation that employees will always be reachable, making it difficult to disconnect and relax. No 401k matching.

      Pros

      Great group of people work there. Fun and quirky company culture. An opportunity to make a lot of money if you work hard and are placed on a good market.

      Cons

      Its still a young company so there is a little disorganization and not a clear path for advancement. It has also gotten much bigger than I anticipate it being when I began working there.
