Pros

Plenty of parking space because employees are either being fired or quitting unable to bear the harassment at work

Cons

Other companies spend millions on marketing and sales strategies. The product marketing team at View suggests sharing Twitter and news article links among family members to increase visibility of the product. Such a joke! The quality of hiring is so bad that most of employees in the engineering and management team do not have relevant degrees. Children of employees are hired at free will. This automatically leads to poor software products being shipped to customers. View is filled with people who were either fired from their previous company or who have extremely poor skill set. You end up working with dumbest minds in the bay area. The employee morale is very low. Most of the day is spent in fire fighting and providing solutions to production issues rather than focussing on goals and tasks. It is impossible to improve and grow skill set at View. The CEO treats his employees like bonded laborers. When there a little bit of glare at his shiny private office he commands all his slaves to run and fix the problem. Little does he know his own employees work in sub standard work environments with poor lighting. Pay is a joke. No annual bonus, 401K match or employee stock plan. Company is not making profit and there are no signs that it will go IPO

Pros

Incredibly great idea for a product.

Cons

Horrible place to work. You will spend your days being berated publicly. Finding a scapegoat is an everyday challenge and sooner or later it will be you. Engineering sends out product without fully testing and then blames everyone else when it doesn't work. CEO believes he is God and treats every single person below him like dirt. The only employees who are promoted are those who can best make their team members feel like crap. Take notice of any of the positive reviews here that they are all submitted on the same day or week. This is usually following the monthly employee meeting where they CEO whines that they aren't getting better reviews but refuses to address the large number of bad reviews. The bad reviews have been coming in for years and there has not been any changes made. Run, don't walk from this company.

Pros

If you work hard, do good work, and don't complain you might cut it.

Cons

Absolutely every negative review is accurate. Absolutely every positive review was written by HR under direct order from CEO.
