Pros

Focus on work life balance, 4 day weekends every quarter, family health insurance (HSA) is largely paid for even with 2026 plan, health PTO, gym stipend. Company growth has been solid (excellent stock) and product direction. Francois seems to care about the company and this trickles through the levels.

Cons

Relatively open to remote work, though does focus often on HQ and office (Seattle / San Jose) for most hiring. Could benefit opening up nationally.

Pros

* I enjoyed the collaborative team culture. Everyone was supportive and willing to help each other. * The work-life balance was good, and the overall working environment was relatively low stress. * I had opportunities to work on large-scale enterprise products and collaborate with cross-functional teams.

Cons

* One area I felt could be improved was compensation growth. As my responsibilities and technical skills expanded, I was looking for opportunities that offered stronger career and compensation progression.
