Young company so lots of change everyday, org charts not well thought throughout, issues are more easily resolved on a superficial level than in-depth

Pros

Great employee benefits and perks. A lot of capitol is spent on making the workspace and services top notch with fun environment. Many many projects to work on and if you like varied task and job roles that are in flux, which change quite a bit as your role is better defined this is the place to find your worth. It's quite a swim or sink place. Common exciting "start-up company" things abound which do keep fresh ideas and a bit zaniness in the daily work routine. Over the past few years the leadership has worked to start adding clear goals that can be translated to the team level. There is a measure of accountability. Amazing to work with three founders were are very much involved with the company's direction and mission. Lots of investment in the future, the cash is being burned but for growth and R&D needs.

Cons

Lots of growing pains due to being young, and moving very vast. Can seem like ever shifting priorities and sometimes murky communication. Often can be very hard to find critical info and engage key teams/resources due to contention of priorities.
