Pros

Technically challenging environment. You can pursue a large number of various technical challenges and build up your own skill sets.

Cons

This organization and leadership are very political and very toxic. You are better off remaining an unknown entity to the executive level else you will have a target on your back. Lots of 'feel good' public messaging but that is only for show. Executive leadership is more concerned with obedience of the employees than building a healthy business.

Pros

- Getting to work with a very talented and professional group of people - plenty of opportunities to take initiative and make a real difference at the company as opposed to feeling like a cog in a machine - hard work and dedication is celebrated here - management appreciates and recognizes when someone goes the extra mile - high expectations, yet an understanding of work-life balance. Positive culture that encourages forming authentic bonds and connections with your colleagues - Solid benefits package that takes care of the employees

Cons

in true startup fashion, processes and expectations change quickly and frequently here. It can definitely be challenging to keep up with that; must be able to adapt consistently
