Pros

Incredibly talented and motivated group of people who work well together and help each other succeed. Best idea wins culture. Values-driven, mission-driven business. People develop their own career paths and are encouraged to change roles within the org, if another area of career exploration interests them. Diversity of opinions and approaches to work encouraged, not just accepted.

Cons

Location is on public transportation, but in a relatively-industrial, distant Brooklyn neighborhood. Can be a schelp to get from work to after-work events elsewhere in Brooklyn or the city. Limited food options, so many bring own lunch to work. Strong seasonal spike in business can create very challenging 4Q work experience for some.
