Pros

People are uber talented from Google, MIT, Harvard but more importantly always has a sense of humor! Team has a growth mindset since it believes anyone and everyone can be a developer -- even if you haven't done something before, it doesn't mean they won't trust you to push out code, find office space, play HR or whatever is needed at the moment. This has been refreshing coming from Google where I was told I couldn't do a lot of things because it was someone else's job. Big vision to enable anyone to make apps without knowing how to code -- today, I chat with first time developers in Australia, Saudia Arabia, India and Canada Daily team lunch which is always an adventure -- we have lunch outside every day as a team which is like a mini-offset every day of the year Transparency - the founders are committed to being transparent to all on the team which is not always the rule with start-ups that have their ups and their downs. Everything from financials to users to investor meetings etc are openly discussed and you can join almost any meeting you want to

Cons

We don't have a billion users yet

Pros

We're a tight-knit group of 20 engineers, scattered worldwide. Our engineering team seamlessly collaborates with the design and product squads, forming a powerhouse of creativity. We're not your typical tech team—we're consistently rolling out new features and tackling bugs with lightning speed every week. Imagine diving into code in week one, and voila, revealing a sleek new feature by month one. That's the kind of awesomeness we're rocking here!

Cons

Figuring out the perfect time for team meetings can be a bit tricky in our fully distributed setup. We take pride in embracing top talents from all corners, but there's always room to enhance our approach. Exploring the idea of hiring from specific locations or setting up more structured regional teams could really shake things up. It's all about striking that balance between flexibility and cohesion, and we're on a mission to find that sweet spot!
