Pros

Constantly growing and hiring new top talent. Opportunities for growth in most organizations/business units. Ability to change your role and move into different departments if you want a career change. The best selling On Demand SaaS, PaaS product out there. It sells itself. Wonderful people, smart and talented.

Cons

Growth means growing pains. Many people sitting in folding tables. In a sense it is a good problem to have. Hiring too many senior managers who don't do the "worker bee" work leaving staff to pick up their slack. High level decisions that are not collaborative which at times leaves company strategy struggling.

Pros

- Great opportunities to advance your career - Awesome compensation packages - Really cool people! Everyone is very smart and incredibly funny. These are the kind of people I will want to work with again and again. Great happy hours! - Opportunity to work for a rapidly growing, reputable tech company - Ability to work directly with the world's biggest brands - Opportunity to work in the hottest industry, at one of the fastest growing companies in Social Media and software - Competitive in the best sense of the word; determination to be the market leader (and company kickball winner/ beer pong champion) - Fast paced and never dull - Exposure to brilliant people and industry leaders - Age and/or gender are insignificant as they relate to career advancement. If you're good at your job and willing to work hard, the sky is the limit - Tuition reimbursement

Cons

- You have to work! Leads to great learning opportunities and career satisfaction for the right people, but will be a con for those who want to get paid without doing the work - "Growing pains", as management team likes to say. Buddy Media is trying to figure out the best way to operate as a growing company, while still maintaining the small company magic. There have been several hits this year, but also some misses

Pros

Salary Benifits/perks Awesome product Cloud DNA Training

Cons

Poor top level management No focus on India Unhealthy Politics Unrealistic targets Firing of employees is normal Becoming Oracle/IBM culturally Delhi office - 40 ppl ( which I was part of) were fired without any reason or prior intimation and were not even given an option to move to another location. To top it ,they hired goons, fearing a retaliation from the employees , which never happened . Some of these 40 ppl felt cheated as they were super performers and were bringing in business for the company , month on month . Worst ever severance I have heard in the industry 2months
