Pros

Powerful mission. Lots of startups like to say they're making the world a better place. We actually are. Results oriented, flat hierarchy, minimal management. People are largely self managing and motivated. Forgiveness-not-permission culture. Big, challenging problems with big potential and opportunity. *Amazing* people, across science, engineering, product, lab, business, marketing, and more. So many rock stars to learn from! Strong, health business and product/market fit. No office politics!

Cons

Location. Almost but not quite close to SF, the peninsula, or the east bay. Long reach. We need more people to do all the things we want to do. Regulated space. We're actually handling it pretty well, and don't spend too much time on it, but it's definitely a factor. Clinical health care is somewhat slow and resistant to change. Fun challenge though.

Pros

A group of tech and health veterans coming together to bring innovation at the nexus of those spaces while keeping the office environment light and fun! Everyone is really friendly, humble, and eager. The main office cultures are drive and collaboration. Great benefits, and awesome catered lunch!

Cons

Diversity is an overall issue in the Bay Area, but there is progress to be made here as well.
