Pros

- The team is excellent, everyone seems to be here for the right reasons and we all help each other out any way we can. - Leadership is super transparent and makes me feel like a partner. - If you do well, you'll get to take on a ton of responsibility and have a much higher degree of ownership than at other companies.

Cons

- Work/life balance is a challenge - Compensation could be improved

Hi there- it sounds like you've had a tough experience here. I know we just wrapped up our latest Culture Pulse survey and looked at the results together as team. If you'd like to talk about any of that personally and share your experience I'd love to hear from you. -Dana
