Pros

Work life balance, unlimited PTO, casual work environment.

Cons

Management is down right dumb. They promote sales people with no management training. Cannibalize company salesforce and do not provide any leads. Cold call all day to accounts that people specifically asked not to be contacted.

Pros

They still manage to trap good people, though it's rarer and rarer

Cons

- Lies: company lies completely during recruitment to get you in the door. - Bad Working conditions: it's a sweat shop, not where your opinion counts. Work place is devoid of any life. There is no trust on anybody, as everybody is scared for their jobs. This company hires foreigners so they are trapped to company due to visa restrictions, hardly any local applies or work here. - Loss making business, hence many from senior management have been kicked out, hundreds of unannounced redundancies. - Highly political

Pros

After working for some of the large companies in the Seattle area, I can say I would never go back after being at Groupon. -Smartest people I've ever met -No BS process -Startup atmosphere without the 20hr workdays -Actual transparency from highest levels of management

Cons

-Hiring like crazy means office space is starting to get cramped. Need to find more office space.
