Pros

I have been working in the company for about a month now but for now, the company makes me feel like my opinion matters. They are constantly asking and seeking ways to improve, and I feel like that's valid for each employee that I've worked with in DraftKings. I really like the team that I am working with as well.

Cons

The company is bigger than what I am used to so it's harder to orient which is where although everything seems well organized. I guess it's a matter of time for me to get used to it.
