Pros

Best place in my 20 years in the professional workforce. - Founders and leaders hold high standards through noble values and humility. - Culture of collaboration, transparency, and dedication. Also focused on equality and inclusion. - Best cloud-native Data Science Platform in the World, based on open-source for Advanced Analytics. - Growing in Data Lakes and Data Warehouse space by helping customers finally gain reliability and performance from their prior investments in Big Data. - Employees and partners enable customers to make a real impact in their field. Bonus for Public Sector team: Best VP in the business - and hardest-working Federal GM - they will help you succeed!

Cons

No issues as long as one possesses #Grit. It’s fast-paced and exciting, so understand you’re joining the most amazing start-up you could imagine. No room for egos and be ready to “own it”.
