Vantaggi
ReputationDefender has some terrific people, and some not-so-terrific people on staff. The people that know what they are doing, and are passionate about the work they do, make coming to work worthwhile. The company hosts lunch every other Friday, which is a nice perk, especially if you are on the payroll there and barely scraping by. The office space is kind of nice, if not a little sterile and a "made for TV" Internet startup space (i.e., converted warehouse space in an office park next to some train tracks in a dodgy part of town). Oh, they also have a basketball hoop.
Svantaggi
Upper management does not care about or respect the people that are doing the work for them. All of the directors seem perfectly content to push ungodly amounts of work and ridiculous deadlines on their employees while the directors themselves jet around the world and hold half day business lunches with potential investors. Corporate culture is all top-down, with little or no say as to how things should and could be improved on any level. Directors are rude to managers, who in turn pass the buck along to the lower level employees. A culture of secrecy pervades, fear and intimidation are the order of the day.
