Vantaggi

Super kind and intelligent coworkers. People who want to make a big difference and really mean it. The work you do is so impactful and it really warms your heart to have this chance. Most teams are welcoming and the onboarding process is super helpful for future work down the line. Views of the ocean are also gorgeous.

Svantaggi

Pay is low in general and insanely low for the area. The pay between each level of a DPA coming into the company is pretty similar and it's not great. Additionally, the premiums for good health insurance plans are high. Not an abundance of snacks other than the vending machine you have to pay for. I think the tradeoff is you get to do great work but it's hard to stay when you have bills to pay sadly.

Thanks for leaving us a review. We understand the cost of living in the Bay Area are one of the highest in the country. In 2023 we opened two new office locations in Sacramento, CA and Athens, GA. Now with 5 offices across the country employees have more opportunities to live in an area that's more affordable.
