Vantaggi

If you can lay low and join a team with good people and a good manager (there are a couple), it's possible to be shielded from the politics for a short while.

Svantaggi

Unfortunately, politics corrupt this company from the top down. The CEO and VPs often make promises to investors, board members, and the public to gain funding and company hype. The technical feasibility is an after thought, and a burden placed on the manager and employees of the team. When things are going well, expect that the VPs and CEO will be there to take credit; if things are going poorly, expect them to maneuver themselves out of the path of destruction and let their employees take the fall. I strongly advise future candidates to talk to people on their team before making any decision.

Vantaggi

Much of what the other reviewers say is true. CEO is a strategic thinker, good at raising money, and has a great sense of humor. And there are some really nice/fun/intelligent/capable coworkers, including professionals from across disciplines, plus nice doctors on staff. The products’ technology and the work involved tend to be interesting. And don’t forget the social environment.

Svantaggi

The company has a poor financial history (ask them how many millions they raised, spent, and earned), highly politicized environment, some questionable promotion choices, no visible raises or even performance reviews, weak management, and then there is the erratic CEO who puts employees up on a pedestal only to later cast them aside. Bottom line: despite the pluses, this employer’s instability and minefield of politics make it too risky. There are so many tech. companies in the Bay Area that surely you can find a better company to work for.
