Pros

I worked at Focal right before COVID. I truly loved this company. Worked closely with the CEO and the C-Suite. Very collaborative and tight nit team. Lots to be done and they work really hard. They would not ask you to do something they wouldnt do.

Cons

Its a start up, so process is not there yet. Needs to get there. It is just forming.
