Pros

We're on the cusp of something big - everyone accepts the two-week pay schedule as the way it will always be, but for hundreds of millions of people, it causes huge financial pain in the form overdraft fees, late bills, or resorting to predatory payday loans. Activehours is changing the status quo and it's exhilarating.

Cons

As someone's who's worked in San Francisco for the last 5 years, the commute took some getting used to (though Caltrain is actually fine).

Pros

I joined the company as a Backend Software Engineer. Overall, I'd say the company had several strengths. The initial offer was competitive, and the role provided a strong foundation for developing my interpersonal skills. Working professionally means regularly collaborating with a wide range of personalities and navigating competing deadlines. Learned how to work well with others, regulate emotions and developed emotional distance between me and my work (matured as a professional a lot). I found that as long as deliverables were met, the work environment remained stable.

Cons

There was considerable turnover on the engineering team, which I understood to be related in part to concerns about the tech stack and the company's overall direction.
