      Pros

      free disgusting watery chicken for lunch every day. sometimes when the previous day's food isn't finished, its served the next day. yummm...

      Cons

      Pushy management absolutely no work life balance (o unlimited vacations you say? Let me dump 10 projects on you before you leave, and after you finish then you can go) want 7-8 hours of sleep like a normal human being? too bad you're only going to get max 4 hours. expect to work 8 more hours after you get home, and the cycle starts over again.

      Pros

      I love being able to work around truly passionate people who are ready to change the world. The culture is great, free snacks and food is big plus. I had the opportunity to take ownership of projects within my first month

      Cons

      The hours are much longer than any other job I've worked in, but this is expected to change as we continue hiring more help
