Pros

First, AudienceScience is a different company than it was 1-2 years ago, so a lot of the previous reviews are probably out dated, there's a new direction, new business model, new CEO, it might retain some of the same DNA but the company is different. Pros: Lots of flexibility in your role and lots of room for growth and learning within your role. You don't need to get a promotion to get more responsibility and you won't be pigeon holed into playing one small part. Also, the vision and direction of the company is cutting edge innovative stuff, so it's cool to be part of the future of an industry, playing in the white space.

Cons

It's also painful to be part of the future of an industry and playing in the white space. Everything that can go wrong will go wrong and on a day to day basis that can be difficult to deal with. AudienceScience is all very resource light, so the same positive of being able to play a big role, no matter what role you're hired for, also comes with challenges, sometimes you find gaps in the support you require and there's no quick fix to plug those gaps. Right now AudienceScience needs employees who are comfortable with change and are ready and willing to be a part of that change, anyone who naturally resists change will not enjoy employment at AudienceScience.

Pros

Work is diverse and interesting and platform, engineering and others are not overly siloed. There is good cooperation with other teams. Immediate managers cared about staff and attempted to give the why and focused progress towards goals while trying to address fundamental and historical technical issues. Location in downtown Bellevue makes it accessible.

Cons

Unfortunately upper management is very broken in the company. 6 months ago they brought in new upper management that is even more cutthroat than what we had before. Borderline sociopathic who look at staff as disposable. This company has a serious history of heartless layoffs around Christmas and recently it’s been taken to a new level. They set a number of engineers up where they were told to work with an outside team, and after passing them all the information, they fired the team and outsourced the work. People don’t find new jobs over Christmas. HR was totally quiet and seemed powerless to do what is right. And they provided almost no severance. We’re a small company, this stuff spreads. People find out. Why not give them a heads up so they could look until Feb when companies start hiring again. Or give them a good severance to give them time. Upper management doesn’t push work towards the greater vision but all focus and projects are limited to the 1 client only. This results in no growth, and creative ideas are squashed. The teams are constantly overworked and always in fear of getting fired because they say yes to every demand and give promises on deadlines that are completely unrealistic. You would think that if upper management develops an Amazon style culture compensation would also be matching. But compensation is just average, there is NO bonus to speak of and they quietly have stopped giving out the stock options, as useless as they were.
