Pros

Great benefits, unlimited vacation, catered free food, nice office space, good location in Seattle - very close to public transit and pike place, good work life balance - no emails or work on weekends or weeknights

Cons

Really boring place to work as a software engineer. The newness of the perks wear out quickly. According to the quarterly all hands - about 20% of the employees leave the company within the first year of joining. In my opinion that is very high. If you accept a position here, it is likely that you might not be able to advance your career. The company goals and vision are not defined very well.

Pros

Strong company culture that values innovation, collaborative teams with smart colleagues, access to cutting-edge SEO tools, supportive leadership that encourages learning, and plenty of opportunities to work on impactful projects.

Cons

Processes can feel slow at times for decision-making, workload spikes during product launches, some departments operate in silos despite efforts at alignment, compensation could be more competitive for the industry, and remote work policies were occasionally inconsistent.

Overwork, very low respect from corporate, low transparency from corporate, repeated layoffs damaging morale, hollowing out of unique benefits made overall package less competitive, Ziff Davis slowly killing a once great company.
