Pros

Free beer, lax atmosphere, ability to have autonomy, some actual great co workers who are not drunk on the kool aid.

Cons

Extreme nepotism - if you're related to one of the founders or executives, you will come in as a VP - regardless lack of knowledge or experience. Extremely chaotic - things change daily on a whim. Cult like following. Questionable hiring and firing practices. High turnover. It's an actual mess. Read the reviews and run.

Pros

- Really great colleagues! - Beer

Cons

DO NOT RECOMMEND COMMUNITY - All the cons written here is accurate. Expect long hours, very little work life balance. They make you feel bad for wanting any life out of work. Many people hardly have time to eat lunch - and if you don't live and breathe WeWork at every moment they frown upon this. Very little support from upper management, they don't listen to you at all. They fire team members regularly, and very hostile manner - escorting you out of the building after gas lighting you. There's really no career growth or any useful skills you learn. It's really difficult to transfer to a next job after this. It really is like working in a cult - will monitor all your behaviour including your social media profiles.

Pros

Fast pace, ever evolving role. The company supports growth & encourages one developing their role within the company. The learning platform is incredible. The people & perks are great.

Cons

The one con is it's a bit like you become an expert in a limited role, less creative than past jobs. This is to streamline the incredibly fast programmes. You need to extend yourself to get the most out of it.
