Pros

Great team, really collaborative, lots of smart people. Product really works. Comp package is pretty competitive. Full of great challenges. Opportunity to make a difference is enormous.

Cons

Company facing a lot of fairly standard growth challenges. Moving from 150 to 300 people is a big change for any organisation. There have been a few mis teps but I think the intellectual firepower available to us is more than equal to the measure of those challenges.

Pros

Supportive people, a strong culture, and meaningful flexibility are the biggest positives. I've had the chance to work with thoughtful colleagues who care about doing good work and helping each other succeed. There are solid opportunities to learn, build relationships across teams, and contribute in a way that feels impactful.

Cons

Workloads can be heavy during busy periods, and priorities can sometimes shift quickly (which is expected in growing companies)

Pros

Remote work and decent pay

Cons

Really depends on the team, however middle management needs to be addressed. Toxic culture that truly depends on who your manager is. Silent layoffs are made to seem "Performance-based", then job is re-posted at a reduced range. Proceed with caution and understand that HR is not your friend.
