Pros

+ High-growth -- onboarding new hires nearly every week + Transparency with upper management -- All-Hands every week discusses the ins and outs of the company to keep employees informed + Positive career growth trajectories -- do your job + go above and beyond and your chances of promotion are high + Good benefits -- catered lunches, stocked fridge, massages, wine&cheese events, and more + "Identity management is hot right now", the company is poised to be successful. Right space, right timing, solid leadership

Cons

+ Very dynamic environment (which is also a positive) but certainly not for someone that thrives on stability and comfort in their every day work environment

Pros

Smart, talented, and supportive colleagues. Interesting products and the opportunity to work on technology that impacts many customers. Good work-life balance in most teams. Collaborative culture with opportunities to learn from experienced peers. Strong brand recognition and valuable experience for your resume

Cons

Cons Recognition is lacking, especially for individual contributors. Strong performance and consistent delivery do not necessarily translate into career advancement, promotions, or meaningful salary increases. Growth opportunities appear limited for ICs, while management roles seem to receive a greater share of advancement and compensation opportunities. After several years, many individual contributors may find themselves reaching a career plateau with few clear paths for progression. If career growth, promotion opportunities, and compensation advancement are important priorities, it may be worth evaluating other opportunities once you’ve gained experience here
