Probably the worst employment experience I have ever had

Pros

-There are some really great people in the SF office, seriously. I have no idea why any of them would waste their time at this company. -Free Lunch on Friday (if you don't mind chancing food poisoning) -Seemingly supportive management. That is until they fire you without a word of warning or explanation after telling you how well you're doing for three months.. But they sure sounded supportive! -SF office is over a cannabis dispensary, so if you like working in a bong, you're in heaven

Cons

-Incredibly poor communication between offices -God help you if you are in SF and need training from Paris or UK to learn your job -Exceedingly complex HR/evaluation system that has apparently nothing to do with one's actual performance -This product really isn't good enough to compete in the US, so prepare to be embarrassed when your friends want to know what you do and take a look at your product. -They pay partially in bonus rather than giving you a livable base salary. This may work for sales/commission based positions, but for most positions, it's basically a way to screw you over.

Pros

Innovative product and company vision, great existing platform, solid story in the European market, ambitious US team eager to develop something new, exciting, and successful.

Cons

Difficult to work on a product that isn't publicly available in your own country. Poor internal communication, lack of leadership, slow to implement change or respond to critical team needs.

Don't waste your time if you have other options

Pros

Great colleagues in the U.S. office who are really smart and fun. Good equipment (laptop, monitor of your choice.) If your work hard you'll get more responsibilities/opportunities (but no title/wage change.) You can learn a lot about an interesting space.

Cons

Management Low salary Dishonest and not transparent Do not keep their word on deadlines/details No systems in place No communication Disconnect between offices, very hard to work in the U.S. with little chance of visiting HQ. Cheap
