Pros

- Deeply committed people that are willing to jump in and help each other - Incredible leadership that helps align people toward important goals - Ability to pivot and address problems - The mission is fresh and interesting and cutting edge and I feel empowered to learn and contribute every day. - Women are in the majority at our tech company. We are supportive of each other and lift each other up. - After a year of working here, I can honestly say that I still LOVE my job and ALL of my colleagues. This is a rockstar team, and I feel fortunate to be a part of this company.

Cons

- We all act like owners, but that also means it can be hard to take a break.

Pros

The team at Braintrust is made by some of the nicest, most supportive people I've met. Very early on you will understand you can count on turning to them for questions and they often proactively offer help: or at least a pep talk! The idea behind Braintrust and how the company is run is something super easy to stand behind. I worked in different agencies before but I was never loving to grow them as much as I love to grow Braintrust...simply because I believe in what this company is doing. I'm also allowed to own projects apart from my main scope of work and get new skills this way and show what's in me. And..working remotely with full flexibility is something I appreciate daily!

Cons

A lot, lot, lot of work. Braintrust is for people who want to grow, create and get better in what they're doing. It will give you the perfect environment and support for it, but ultimately you will have to do the work yourself.

Pros

Culture: Everyone is rowing in the same direction all of the time. There is a real drive to do the right thing, move fast, and not solve problems unilaterally Leadership: Top-down, this is an incredible group of leaders and the amount of thoughtfulness that goes into everything they do is more than I've experienced in my 20+ sales career. The marketplace: The marketplace we serve is in desperate need of equity and disruption. They are building something that can change the world for the better Benefits: Ownership - first and foremost, a competitive salary, healthcare, 401k, learning & development, technology, gym, and house cleaning (!!!) stipends. Work/Life - Yes it's a new company, and yes the work is hard and you work a lot. However, we all have families and there is space to ensure you can take care of yourself and your family.

Cons

Hard to find a con but I'd say typical early years growing pains. Better come with your big boy/girl pants on because the highs and lows are everywhere.
