      Very happy

      Engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Work with great (the best) people - Fantastic work/life balance with unlimited vacation and flexible work hours - People get to work on meaningful things, and the company makes a visible impact on the world - As much transparency as is legally possible. Employees get to see almost everything, including board presentations

      Cons

      - Transparency has suffered a little since the IPO, but that is expected - There is no 401k matching yet - Individual teams are still very agile, but it's starting to feel like a big company in some ways
