Pros

1. Remote work 2. Unlimited PTO 3. Async work culture

Cons

1. Unfair pay practices outside US. They have a concept of location factor which is not revised for years irrespective of how the market or economy of a particular country is performing. Yearly compensation appraisals are based on US standards which are extremely low for many other countries. 2. Some technology teams have too much pressure to deliver from product managers who are just running behind deadlines. 3. Bad expense policies for a remote company. They have cut a lot of corners here although they save a lot by being remote.
