Pros
- Business is booming for now. I am very optimistic about the next year. Indicators of company health is visible in dashboards, so helps with peace of mind since this is a start up.
- The people you work with are great. A good candid collaborative environment. I've learned a lot from the people here, and I feel like my contributions are recognized.
- Management is pretty transparent and reasonable.
- Generally good work life balance. People actually take PTO here. Can get busy during peak season or during crunch time, but what company isn't like that.
- Nice perks like free lunch from a rotating selection of restaurants in GrubHub, happy hour desserts/drinks that are actually pretty good, board games during lunch, etc, good snack selection that is open to suggestions.
Cons
- Sprints are a bit chaotic accommodating partner requests.
- Pay could be better, but comparable to other start ups.
- Growing pains. The company is scaling quickly, so there is not as much structure as I'm used to. They're starting to roll out OKRs now and formalizing the process more, but they're definitely growing into it.
