Pros

Instant is filled with smart, driven people who truly care about helping frontline workers access their pay when they need it most. The mission is inspiring, and you feel the impact of your work every day. The culture encourages freedom, flexibility, and accountability. You’re trusted to do your job and deliver results. As a startup, there’s plenty of opportunity to wear many hats, collaborate cross-functionally, and move fast. It’s a great environment if you enjoy versatility, challenges and problem solving.

Cons

Like most startups and lean teams, things move fast and the to do list is never ending. You really have to focus on doing what's most impact or you will get caught up doing busy work.
