Pros
This is my third company since I left college, and it is my second startup. My first startup was on a rocket ship trajectory (I was the 40th employee and I left at 300) and I left do it again at Synack but this time better. Pros: 1. The space Industrially and physically - Security/CrowdSourcing two of the most interesting trends at the moment with a weight to each of them that consists of more substance than a fad. Crowdsourcing being an incredible way to maximize scale/growth and Security being an amazing field to bring some repairable guidance to the internet that severely needs it. The physical space the company has is a nice addition as well! 2. Very unique perspective derived from employees. The people who work here aren't your typical startup people. They thrive to put themselves in new situations and have a hacking mentality to everything they do whether it be growth, business, web or recreational activities that may involve a kick of adrenaline. 3. There aren't limitations to the groundwork you can contribute as a team member as long as your vision is furthering the company. 4. Management hires smart
Cons
1. If you live in the city, you will put up with a commute but if you know the value in the time you're investing you get over that very quickly.
