Pros

Challenging work. Fast growing company. Flexible work environment. No one has been forced back to the office, and if you work in the office, no one monitors what time you come or go. Everyone trusts you’ll be an adult and do your job.

Cons

Work life balance is tough because the company is growing so fast.
