CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

- Awesome office - Beer fridge / plenty of snacks and drinks / constant free lunches and parties - Weekly massage therapist - Lots of company branded swag - Plenty of autonomy in work - Flexible hours with opportunity to work from home on occassion - Commissions based on overall company growth as well as individual growth - Excellent work stations (new computers, mice, keyboards, monitors) - Lots of shared space to collaborate and or just hang out and chat with co-workers - Management is quick to act on new ideas

Cons

- Repetitiveness in daily job (probably most jobs though) - No 401k match (this should be a given) - No company equity (would be cool) - Forced "9 to 5" (sometimes you finish your daily work early)

Great Stepping Stone to other Opportunities

Software developer

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

- Startup atmosphere - Happy hours and other team building events - Some flexibility in changing process (depending on your team) - Ability to learn the full lifecycle of mobile adtech - Great if you're in your twenties and are willing to forego some benefits to gain experience quickly - Little micromanaging - you can take a lot of initiative - The employees are fun to work with and knowledgeable - Beer fridge, team lunches, holiday events

Cons

- Culture stemming from upper management breeds competition within and across teams, holding back collaboration because everyone feels like they need to look out for themselves. - Communication at all levels and between teams, despite it being a "company value" - This is a sales company, even if they try to market themselves as a tech company. Just keep that in mind if you are coming in as a developer. Proper software architecture and planning may have to be put on hold for getting things out asap. - Lack of mentorship - self-learning can only take you so far, but there's no one to mentor you to the next level - No matching 401k or company equity - Dependent benefits are horrible (paltry spouse life insurance, employee responsibility for monthly premiums for dependents) - No consistent schedule for promotions or raises - Yearly bonuses are replaced by a little tech gadget or a gift card
