Pros

- Profitable - Market-leading tech - Huge moat - Huge TAM

Cons

- CEO micromanages every decision and will not invest in growth channels that he has no experience in (Ent Marketing & Sales needs) - Extremely Hierarchical decision making - 80% of business comes from US but only Sales teams are online during US hours. No cross-function collaboration.

Pros

Excellent work-life balance with a strong employee-first culture. There are continuous learning opportunities, supportive leadership, and no micromanagement. Managers are approachable, and the company genuinely cares about employee well-being while offering great benefits.

Cons

I personally haven’t experienced any major downsides so far. I’ve been with the company for almost 2 years, and my experience has been very positive overall.
