Pros

Great software, customers love it - genuinely world class. Pay is pretty competitive for my area, lot of talented, like minded people - given the license to manage WLB but constant pressure to keep things growing requires a lot of resolve

Cons

classic challenges of growing the right stuff whilst trying to sustain the existing business: year on year requires more from the technical field sellers (culture of and) often having to cover for missing roles - internal/non-existing tooling compensated for with additional manual processes. Everyone is trying to scale through everyone else. Multiple mixed priorities means everything is urgent and important resulting in constant pressure to be reactive. Doesn't look like this is going to change any time soon.

Pros

- Great Company and Engineering Culture -Little to zero politics, value driven -Strong vision, stronger products, steady growth -Working with top world talent, everyone around is impressive of what they've done in their career! -High transparency, CEO and Co-Founders are trustworthy!

Cons

Really difficult to point something tangible here! Internal Mobility and Transfer is not fully democratized yet, but it'll come as the company grows further.
