- Barely liveable compensation
- Santa Barbara cost of living
- Last-minute changes handed down at the drop of a hat, lacking proper vetting/testing/consideration of all probable consequences
- Inefficient, ancient processes--smarter clients are losing confidence
- Learning curve is steep due to hoardes of tribal knowledge
- New parent company TrueCar is a rollercoaster ride
- Editorial and Technology groups have work/life balances which favor the former, whereas most other groups favor the latter. Compensation, though, doesn't reflect that fact
