Pros

Good learning opportunities for new engineers. Lots of latent business potential. Flexibility in moving across teams expands horizons Good benefits like 401k, health insurance etc

Cons

Engineering leadership is very weak and nontechnical Attrition is high on teams like payments. The management team has not been able to hire top talent A really weak CTO, non technical VPE

Pros

I love being able to work around truly passionate people who are ready to change the world. The culture is great, free snacks and food is big plus. I had the opportunity to take ownership of projects within my first month

Cons

The hours are much longer than any other job I've worked in, but this is expected to change as we continue hiring more help
