Pros

- Very fast and HIGH ENERGY culture - Incredibly smart people everywhere - Tons of opportunities to try new things in the AI space, literally told to go burn tokens - you'll even see people from non-technical roles build amazing things here due to how highly encouraged it is - Work is high impact and you can really feel the value of your work - Customer relationships are PEAK, no matter your role you are encouraged to talk to customers and because of this it's so incredibly easy to understand why we do what we do - The work is fun, interesting and sometimes downright addictive, hours will fly by and you may not want to stop

Cons

- Can be a little chaotic and disorganized due to how quickly new ideas/projects come and go so you'll need good time management skills and the ability to prioritize tasks without needing a lot of guidance - The high talent density can make you experience some imposter syndrome (to be fair, being around smart people is a GOOD thing) - Can be stressful if you think about how critical your work is and how an error could impact thousands of businesses - Not a typical 9-5 as some days can be long (I have never felt like it was required but it's not entirely discouraged either, I personally find this nice because work you enjoy doesn't feel like work at all, and if you need to call it a day you can pretty much do so whenever - there's lots of flexibility here)

Pros

- mission-driven company and everyone is really motivated by it - incredibly high talent bar makes working with the team a joy - high trust environment; lots of autonomy

Cons

- lots of autonomy can mean really broad/vague projects. Awesome for some, not for others - quite a high workload

Pros

- Top-tier talent density, even relative to other well-regarded big tech firms - everyone here is really effective at getting things done and believes deeply in the company mission of helping small businesses succeed - Owner still has a long way to achieving its full growth potential, so still lots of equity upside to be had - Good work/high impact is well acknowledged and rewarded by leadership, especially with career growth opportunities - Great chance to grow your AI coding skills in a place that sees AI as a way to supercharge engineer capabilities rather than replace them

Cons

- Growing startup with high hiring standards means much more work to do than people to do it, so work can often get pretty intense. Not a place to rest and vest. - Working here is more of a long term bet. You could definitely make more $$ + liquid RSUs at a public company or a private one with buybacks, but if you believe the company will succeed within a decade, you’re joining early enough for your options to see significant gains. In the meantime, you gotta make do with the base salary.
