Pros

Great snacks and the everyday people you work with are great

Cons

The biggest con is management. MN lacks a strong leader that has a clear vision that people can resonate with. In addition, when executive management is present (most of the time they are not), they are borderline incompetent. Elon musk is brought up regularly on how we should model our business like his. In addition, there were layoffs recently that impacted about 15-20% of the company. Lastly, the company lacks transparency. If you sat in the all hands, you would have thought everything was great and amazing, but behind the scenes, it’s been a disaster. Overall, I would not recommend.

Pros

Helpful friendly teams Hands on training and development Company culture which fosters growth and collaboration Free parking Good benefits with perks Generous time off

Cons

Not really a con if you want to innovate and process improve; Its a growing company where processes are still being established and figured out so being a team player and dealing well with a little ambiguity will serve one well

Pros

The people here are fantastic and easily the best part of the job, plus my manager is very empowering. Office admin team puts on a lot of fun events throughout the year to build camaraderie, especially during summer.

Cons

Senior leadership/ownership - they hire great people but then dont let the experts in their field make decisions. I have never had so much rework and changing directives in my professional life, which is the biggest source of frustration in working here. It's almost a race to complete a project before the owner gets an idea from a podcast and wants to implement it immediately.
