Pros

Interesting work Ability to rotate programs and find work that fits you (YMMV) Flexible WFH policy Great people to work with Great direct management Good work life balance Retirement matching is amazing (5% employee -> 10% Draper)

Cons

CEO seems to want to be a big prime Culture is shifting from "doing interesting things yields great work" to "overhead is the devil" Pay is less than what you could get at other similar companies
