Evan,

The first thing that came to mind when I saw a bunch of young people in an office making a music video was all the bad 90's internet startups where the owners spent a lot of time trying to make the office a fun place instead of worrying about a business plan that will turn a profit.

It looks like a great place to work until they run out of venture capital and ask you if you would keep working even though they don't have the money to cover the payroll checks this month.

Couple things:

1) It's pretty shortsighted to say that just because somewhere is a fun place to work it's going to be economically unsustainable. The tech bubble burst had nothing to do with owners not worrying about business plans. Crap businesses got funding, that's a different problem.
2) This company runs some pretty successful businesses.
