Vantaggi

I worked on the product team and helped with marketing, social media, and site feature development. It was my first job out of college. During my time there, upper management was diligent and focused on goals. Communication from my team lead and CEO was straightforward and left no guessing as to what they wanted out of each employee (which is much appreciated!). The office culture was positive and fun. For example, all employees received gifts for the holidays and the CEO purchased various toys like flying helicopters and Nerf guns when we needed to take a break from work. Most importantly, the chance to dive into different areas of the business was always available to employees who worked hard and asked for opportunities to grow and branch out. If you had an idea for the site or service, bringing those thoughts to your team lead always led to a discussion. They took employees' ideas about the business seriously.

Svantaggi

The 401K plan could have had more options when I was working there (although this may have changed since I left). In addition, more integration with the advertising and product team was something the company was diligently working on when I left, and making strides in that area were important.

Vantaggi

You will form strong bonds with the people you work with as you search for sanity. Plenty of space in the office since barely anyone makes it over a year. Become friends with the mannequins as soon as you can as they are the only "employees" who will still be there when you leave or get fired.

Svantaggi

At your interview, you will be promised the world and complete freedom to succeed. You will soon find out this is not true at all. Simply ask any employee who has been here over a year (good luck finding any management who is still there over a year). All of the one star reviews here are from actual employees who worked there. The 5 star reviews are from management, offsite contractors or people who have worked at Fixya for less than 6 months. There are very few employees whom make it past the 1 year mark. I wish I had never worked here. I personally watched 12+ people leave in 6 months. Some quit with 2 week notices, some got fired during the holidays, and some just got up and left and never came back...seriously. I never seen this at any Bay Area company. There is no trust and in the end your skills and talents will be wasted. You will find yourself questioning your own abilities and you will leave here feeling mentally and emotionally exhausted. I found it funny that the dishwasher leaked in the kitchen everyday.
