Pros
What stands out most is how quickly things move from idea to execution. There's no months-long approval process; if you have a strong point of view and data to support it, you can drive real change. The leadership team is ambitious and genuinely wants to build something category-defining, which is energizing. I work with talented people across engineering, design, and content, and the cross-functional collaboration is solid. The problems we're solving are interesting, and you can see the direct impact of your work on all our users.
Cons
Sometimes the speed comes at the cost of thorough scoping. Tasks can land on your plate without being fully thought through, which means you spend time figuring out the "what" before you can get to the "how." Not a dealbreaker, it's a startup reality, but worth knowing going in.
