Pros

Pre IPO company so monetary gains if they go public. Rest all is fake. Nobody truly cates about community or company believes.

Cons

Nobody is willing to help. You would have to push and ask number of times the senior devs/ engineers to help you if you are stuck. No mentorship to help you grow everybody is working to get personal gains and for IPO event. No attachment to company ethics or goals. All are selfish and dont help you grow but concentrate on personal gains cant trust anyone. Good people who were willing to help and mentor QAs and engineers were nit valued and left the company. Would never recommend anyone to join this startup.

Pros

Great environment with wonderful coworkers Management is flexible and considerate Company is invested in your career Benefit package is amazing

Cons

Being based in San Francisco, the Nashville office has to stream team meetings and often have video meetings with team members in other offices. It's not horrible, it can just feel distant.
