Pluspunten

Most coworkers have wonderful personalities outside of work and are always willing to help. On site benefits such as food, massages, coffee bar, boba Guys and off-site company events are also nice.

Minpunten

The problem of no work/life balance is brought up every quarter with the promise of change but this has yet to be directly addressed. Other than senior management saying that everyone works hard so deal with it. Square is a young company that grew quickly and still has the start-up mentality of long hours and low compensation due to stock options. The reality is that Square is no longer a start up but is now a mid-size corporation that is still relying on the 'you should be grateful to even work at a company like this' thought on retaining employees. The flat organizational structure in Finance has inhibited growth for senior employees. I have witnessed many new employees get the 'bait and switch' of jobs they have applied for compared to the actual work they are doing. The team is amazing and has some great personalities but it is draining to work with so many people that are so unhappy with their job.
