As I mentioned, we just hired an excellent front-end developer from the "Who's Hiring" thread a couple months back. He's loving it here as much as I am.
Many of the tech team is an open workspace that has a view of the ocean (http://picplz.com/user/dabent/pic/tpc4v/), and all the Santa Monica offices are blocks from the beach. They have great benefits, amazing team solving hard problems and a company that's well-funded and earning revenue.
