Pros

There's a lot of hard and interesting work to do, largely driven by our growth and the fact that the problem still isn't solved. Company leadership is competent and open, and this trickles down to the company having a high degree of trust throughout. This means that my day to day work at Asana feels very collaborative, whether I'm working with people directly on my team or elsewhere in the company; and even in the strongest disagreements I have with colleagues, it's quite clear that everyone is trying to do what's best for Asana and our customers, and we're just disagreeing about the best way to do this. On top of all this, I really enjoy working at a company whose business model is to build a great product and sell it, rather than being (e.g.) advertising based.

Cons

There have been a number of times when we've been too clever -- doing either engineering or planning in an "Asana" way, only to have to learn the hard way why things are normally done differently. We say that one of our engineering principles is simplicity, but this is something that doesn't come naturally, and we still need to work on it.
