Pros

Autonomy to complete the tasks at hand without much oversight. Recognition for the work that is accomplished Founder and CEO with vision Transparency Perks- Unlimited PTO (people now take less than the traditional 10 days of PTO now that they know they are responsible for whatever time they need- its counter intuitive but you take less time off this way) Bring your dog to work- always nice to bring "man's best friend"

Cons

-No onsite lunch which is a typical staple in silicon valley -No onsite gym -Our growth has brought in a few culturally bad seeds

Pros

Excellent engineering talent and knowledgeable coworkers. Strong engineering culture with high code quality standards. Modern technology stack and opportunities to work on large-scale enterprise software. Good work-life balance compared to many tech companies. Competitive compensation, benefits, and employee perks. Collaborative environment with supportive teammates. Opportunities to learn new technologies and grow technically. Stable development processes and mature SDLC practices. Strong emphasis on testing, code reviews, and software quality. Flexible work arrangements (depending on team).

Cons

Large organization means decision-making can be slow. Significant amount of process and bureaucracy before changes reach production. Cross-team dependencies can slow delivery. Career growth can depend on organizational priorities and manager support. Frequent reorganizations can shift priorities and disrupt long-term projects. Innovation may move slower than at smaller startups. Internal tools and processes can sometimes feel overly complex. Communication between teams can occasionally be inconsistent. Like much of the tech industry, the company has experienced layoffs, creating uncertainty for some employees. Promotions can take time and require navigating multiple approval levels.
