      Pros

      - Love love love working fully remotely! Helps a lot when it comes to manage family life. - Interesting product and great tech stack to work on. - I work with a bunch of cool people, I get to have video calls with them often. - I've been enjoying working asynchronously! For example, sometimes I get to finish my day with some work handed over to a team member to review. This team member would be located somewhere that's 10-12 hours ahead of me, which means that when I start a new working day, it's likely that I'll have already receive my reviews from my colleague. As a developer, asynchronous work is definitely something that works well.

      Cons

      - The company is growing very fast. As a result, onboarding was a bit rocky, I didn't get my working laptop until a week / 10 days after my first day. Minor annoyance, but that's part of growth, I understand it.

      Pros

      Unlimited vacation time, and no commute
