Pros

Relatively high autonomy Free snacks and catered lunch daily Seamless stipend for dinner for late workers Pool and ping pong tables Roof deck with power and plenty of seating Relatively strong hardware to work with 100% AWS Paid health benefits Health and wellness stipend Education/training stipend Relaxed WFH policy, somewhat flexible hours Flavored still and sparkling waters Ground floor in terms of where the technology can eventually lead Everyone's ideas are heard and addressed (even mine!)

Cons

Leadership team has been in flux a lot (apparently settling down, who knows) Normal attrition rate, which is a con for an exciting startup (although, at 5 years old, is it?) Not the same pay as Amazon/Google/Microsoft, but good enough when you factor in all the perks.

Pros

Culture: I've personally witnessed the CEO leading an entire floor singing Happy Birthday to an employee People: diverse backgrounds with really interesting lives and expertise in so many areas Mission: having a clear mission that the entire company aligns on makes day-to-day decision-making so much easier

Cons

Running out of space for all the new employees Other than that, I haven't run into many yet

The Best Place I've Ever Worked

Pros

So much talent and agility, so much promise, a culture that is second to none. Management truly cares about the employee experience, benefits are generous, the work environment is beautiful, competitors are envious and have begun copying us. Employees are ambitious and dedicated. The success is reflected in our valuation and caliber of investors. If you're offered, say yes.

Cons

I would only be nitpicking.
