Pros

Ability to solve challenging problems, be close to customers, learn and grow in a fast paced environment

Cons

Coffee could be better as we only have cold brew and some generic beans that while get the job done, aren't on par with seattle standards.

Thanks so much for taking the time to share your feedback. I'm glad you're helping us solve challenging problems! And that you're learning and growing. I can relate :)! Seattle sets a high bar for coffee but let's figure out how we can get the right kind. Helps with productivity too :)!
