Pros

Great location in the financial district; solid ties with Expedia guarantee stability and job security no matter what; great work-life balance

Cons

Leadership changes have turned a great company into a poisonous one; executives spend time bad mouthing each other rather than trying to turn around an outdated product; turnover is very high and hiring is a challenge given the bad reputation within the Bay Area; employee morale is at its lowest, don’t be fooled by sudden waves of positive reviews…

Pros

Great people and a relaxed working environment. I appreciate the time people take to work together on a project. No egos whatsoever.

Cons

My commute was my only problem as I was at least an hour away by car. Other than that, I don't have much to complain about.
