Pros

- Leaders that really listen and adopt recommendatioms - Lots of smart, driven folks that all like to hang out. - A mission to change the world The thing I really like is that our team members are constantly learning and growing. This is true of all the engineers and of the management team. Everyone is receptive to feedback. Meanwhile, the executive team is able to hold their ground on the north star of the company and keep it going.

Cons

Mainly, Brigade is still trying to find it's way to product market fit. This leaves us in a place where the team builds stuff and gets rid of it or reforms it periodically. It is a startup after all, I do expect this and think it is good for a company to do this. That being said, other people may not.

Pros

Endless amounts of money (though how it's spent is VERY questionable at times), beautiful office space with lunch provided every day and otherwise good facilities. Flexible PTO policy. Friendly employees.

Cons

Lots of product pivots after trying something for a few months and realizing it doesn't work. Generally the team doesn't feel engaged on the product that they're building at any given time, and leadership is too willing to bend to whatever the company's main funder wants, which is understandable but makes it hard for employees to feel committed. Little growth opportunities within the company. Abhorrent HR practices. Lots of talk about creating company values and culture, but no action. Clear favoritism of certain employees by members of the leadership team, which leads to really disappointing decisions and hypocrisy.
