Pros

Remote first company, so you can work basically anywhere.

Cons

There are numerous red flags here, but the most egregious is the total absence of genuine transparency. They pretend to be open but deliberately avoid sharing any meaningful financial information. The toxic expectation that your job should consume your entire life is rampant, and anyone resisting this is swiftly labeled as “not a team player.” The CEO acts unilaterally, randomly demanding product changes without any input from executives—since there are none—and no head of product to provide coherent direction. The product roadmap itself is little more than a wishlist from a couple of dominant customers. Honestly, steer clear of this startup if you value your sanity and professional integrity.

Pros

Incredible project management and communication. Every team member is so welcoming and kind. I've been here 6 months and am very much enjoying it!

Cons

So far I don't have any cons - especially since working with them for my maternity leave and their introduction of NYC commuter benefits

Pros

- We're winning the AI market (dozens and dozens of high profile AI companies), and is fun to sell to developers who have a real need for the product to scale rapidly - Land and expand usage model allows us to win quickly, with some companies blowing through their 12 mo contracted credits in 3 mo (good for us) - Plenty of opportunity to take ownership and make a real impact - Overall, it’s a place where you can do meaningful work, learn quickly, and be part of something that's taking off

Cons

- That said, like any fast-growing company, there’s still iteration happening around segmentation, pricing, and sales process - Eng is shipping so quickly there's always more to sell, but at different stages of readiness - Things can change quickly, which is great if you’re adaptable and a builder, but frustrating if you want to run an established old school playbook
