A great place for working less than 40 hours and sometimes having cool projects.
Terrible direction from middle management and no career growth beyond IC roles.

It's going to be a gamble tomorrow... and very interesting to watch a direct offering. Will consumers invest in thier playlists? I would be musically lost without the ability to rip everyone elses playlist. @spotify
Anyone knows what do the employees get after an IPO? I keep hearing the they get rich but how? Do they get more stocks or anything like that?
