Pros

Great coworkers: Incredibly smart but also very humble & collaborative Interesting business: Really complex business where you work on interesting problems; truly are never bored! High Ownership: In my experience, most roles have a lot of ownership over business problems, meaning there's potential for really high impact

Cons

The downside of lots of ownership & hard problems is that work-life balance can struggle. Definitely not a cultural norm that is expected, but something that comes naturally at times in some projects

Pros

- Rapid growth and change is not for everyone, but this is the place you want to put in your life's work. Company-wide support and engagement across departments make even remote working productive and fruitful - Making the right hires for the right attributes shows here - leaders are by and large knowledgeable, mature, and considerate. The primary drive is to educate and to support while asking for exceptional results - Job safety is an underlying concept of your work - Management is fully supportive of your work-life balance and helping you develop it - You have an opportunity to truly 'own' the growth of a program or concept you have ideated and to see it come to fruition - You should be prepared to actively participate in change management, the emotional load of people operations, and constructive collaboration with your superiors

Cons

- Rapid growth and change is not for everyone - be prepared for work beyond conventional working hours and days. Although this can be a challenge, support is always there, and that work can be your proudest career moment
