Vantaggi
Awesome Office Passionate People Rewarding Work Relaxed Vacation Policy (not that you'll use it)
Svantaggi
Constantly laying off or firing people, sometimes for as little as posting on Facebook they had a bad day at work. They're running out of cash and so they are looking for reason to fire or lay off people, because they can't afford all the people they've hired on. On top of that, they expect 100% of your time. Most people work 60-70 hours a week and then the CEO tells them they haven't worked hard enough, and that they need to sleep in the office and work over night on the weekends. He actually got the whole company together to show them videos of people sleeping in the office and working overnight then said "THIS is Quirky's culture and I expect it from all of you". Lastly, leadership is not all on the same page when it comes to the strategy, so everyone has different agendas and opinions. It's a sinking ship and everyone knows it. They constantly change direction (I've gone through 6 different org charts in less than 2 years), so it's a mess. Don't buy into the smoke and mirrors; this place is a loser and is bound to be the next Fab. Dead in 2016.
