Pros

Lots to learn - great place for young professionals looking to learn about how to operate a fast growing business. There is a sincere commitment to building the company culture based on the company values (Love, Joy, Courage, Trust, and Responsibility), but the actions often fall short of the commitments. CEO genuinely cares about the business and the people in the company. It shows in almost everything she says and does. Benefits are good - full medical/dental coverage. Stock options if you're lucky. HR team is super nice and really cares about the company - but it's sad how little resources they have to do their jobs (same across all areas though)

Cons

Coaching and feedback is minimal - development sometime feels like a buzzword but not an actual focus for most senior leaders in the company. Too many VPs (there are VPs for all possible areas) and not enough functional SMEs to help in the actual day to day work. CEO is driving the culture - without her there is no culture (I find this scary). Most C-team and VP level only care about revenue and not enough about the people. Too many ideas and not enough execution - C team doesn't understand the importance of strategic planning nor do they have a way to prioritize business initiatives. For a growing start-up there's little emphasis on planning, process, and tools. People just make decisions without understanding the long term impact, leaving lower level employees to handle the execution without support. Sometime you feel like you are set up to fail. Most leaders are short term focused and not enough senior leaders with vision setting and operations experience to make the long range strategy come to life.
