Pros
I moved to Arizona from NYC and wasn't sure what to expect from the companies in Phoenix. After about five weeks at Carvana, I am really impressed with the culture and the caliber of people working here. "Startup" culture can mean a lot of things, but at Carvana it seems to mean that: -everyone is learning as they go and collaborating to make sure that a variety of perspectives go into decisions -you need to be autonomous; no one is going to hold your hand or ask you if you completed your work. It's important to be a self-starter and rise to challenges -leadership is incredibly smart and (luckily) honest about the ambiguity of the company's future growth. It's evident that the company is doing well and will only get bigger, but the rate of that growth is pretty up in the air and flexible.
Cons
As I mentioned before, you need to be a go-getter to love this environment. If you like to do things rather than talk about doing things, you'll love it here. It's not the right environment for anyone looking to be given praise at the completion of every task, but when you really contribute everyone notices and thanks you for being proactive.
