Pros

So, the unofficial 'no a**holes' hiring policy basically says it all. The Duo team is made up of a fantastically diverse blend of wickedly smart people that I am proud to work with and for. Work/life balance is not just a buzzword, it's built in with PTO that doesn't hit a limit and people managers that know that time off is key to being at 100% when you're back. I am in school full time as well as working full time and I can honestly say the support for this is above and beyond what I've seen at some of the other 'best places to work' in the SaaS industry. When I have an idea I am encouraged to speak up and then encouraged to take the lead and make it a reality. You can fail, but fail fast and apply it the next time you try something. Duo is growing at super speed so we have to work to match that pace, but it's fun with this team.

Cons

I am honestly trying to add value by finding a constructive con. As a young company some of the structure you might have elsewhere is still lacking. This is great for me, but if you need more processes in place it may not work for you. Otherwise I simply love it here - great people, collaborative office spaces, attention to feedback and growth areas, an amazing focus on career development, and amenities above what you'd expect from so small a company.
