Pros

This has been an incredible opportunity early in my career. I’ve been able to step up, take real ownership, and make a meaningful impact on the company. Leadership is fierce and ambitious but also genuinely down to earth and supportive. The culture is flat, and everyone is encouraged to find solutions and take on projects they believe will create value. The office environment is also a huge plus — beautiful space with natural light (rare and important in NYC), plants, daily team lunches, birthday celebrations, and lots of small touches that make working here a great experience.

Cons

Not for everyone. We’re growing quickly and teams are lean, so the pace is intense and things change often. It’s best suited for people who are ambitious, proactive, and comfortable doing work outside of a narrow scope. Someone more laid back or who prefers stable processes may struggle here.

Pros

The interview process was very smooth. Everyone I met with was transparent and informative. The team is incredibly smart, hardworking, and thoughtful. Supportive colleagues have made it easy to contribute from day one. There is great energy in the office that makes me excited about coming to work every day.

Cons

Not for everyone. Best suited for people who are comfortable with extreme ownership.

Pros

Unit has a genuinely great in-person culture. Some teams come in 5 days a week by choice, which honestly says a lot. The office is also in a great spot (Tribeca), and it’s a place you actually want to spend time. I’ve never felt more excited to show up to work every day. The energy is high, people move fast, and it feels like you’re surrounded by people who are really good at what they do. The talent here is the real deal... smartest group of people I’ve worked with, but without the ego. People are sharp and direct, but also humble and collaborative. Also, Unit is one of the more diverse companies I’ve worked at, and it’s not just surface-level. You see it across teams and leadership, and it actually shows up in how people work together.

Cons

The company is split across two offices, so depending on where you sit, you can feel a little removed from product/engineering. It’s not a huge issue, but you definitely get less exposure vs. being in one office together.
