Pros

1. The People - You will not find another group of 50 like minded individuals with a crazy (and sometime border line inappropriate) sense of humor, charisma, and spunk like you would at Education. All my co-workers has become like a second (well, really 3rd, 4th) family to me after working here for the past 4 plus years. 2. The Environment - The new office in San Mateo is an open office environment and everyone can go up to people to chat, ask questions, and to think. Once in a while you get an all out nerf gun fight, but it is nicer to be able to see who is in the office in one glance instead of walking through a dark and narrow corridor to find engineering. 3. The Dogs - I became a dog person after working here. If you love dogs, you'll love it here as we rotate who brings in their dog on a daily basis. 4. The Mission - Go read the mission statement. This company strives to achieve the goal that they set in the statement and are they doing a darn good job of it.

Cons

1. Commute - I come from the South Bay, so commuting is a pain when access to CalTrain is a bit far. Driving every day to work can be rough and counterproductive to yourself. 2. Manpower - This is a very small company, less than 50 people in total. With that being said, a lot of employees are not just doing one job. You get pulled into / volunteered into helping different departments. It gets hard to juggle all the responsibilities when your deadline(s) are looming.

All is good as long as you stay in your lane. Engineers are gods.
