Pros

- learned a lot - great, skilled. friendly colleagues. very collaborative. - flexible work arrangements, very autonomous - you're trusted to manage your time and are given freedom to balance your personal / family life however suits you - your opinion matters, it's definitely more about the quality of what you're saying than your seniority. company is very data-driven so if you can back up what you're saying it's taken very well - possibility of getting involved with things across the company, so if you're interested in cross-functional work it's great. - the company mission is great, customers generally in very interesting companies and this does shape the culture positively

Cons

- very busy, you'll have to learn quickly and won't ever get everything done - you have to be very proactive about advocating for yourself + the support you need. you need to set boundaries for how much you can get done - you'll grow very quickly but this isn't necessarily reflected in salary progression as quickly as it would in a more established company

Pros

The people employed to do the work are almost all fantastic, kind, bright, passionate people, and the remote-first setup works really well.

Cons

Those who occupy the top positions are out of their depth and their insecurity and arrogance mean the company has really lost its way. Talented people are gaslit, ground down and, in some cases, driven out by toxic leadership styles, and the culture has subtly become one of "do what you're told". The management style in some teams serves to hold people down rather than help them achieve what they're capable of. Over half the company were recently laid off out of the blue, just weeks after employees were told some of the teams would be growing. The company pretends to be data-driven, but the data behind the decisions is never shared and pertinent questions/concerns are dismissed or discouraged.
