Lots of great benefits within this company.

Pros: - mid-year holiday break - quarterly company-wide together weeks Cons: - no 401k match
- Mar 15, 2024Current Employee in San Mateo, CA, California
Considering the company's value, benefits feel a bit lacking. Medical insurance isn't amazing and there's no matching 401k.
