Pros

Decent opportunities for growth. Working hours flexibility. Relaxed environment and fantastic colleagues. Versatile position — definitely not a call centre kind of job if that's what you're imagining.

Cons

Californian PC culture can be a bit too strong.

Pros

We're working on a mission that matters. People spend so much time at work, and a lot don't really like their jobs, so anything we can do to bring some magic, fun, and simplicity to their lives feels good! The exec team is in this for the long-haul and they're fully values driven. Things are not political.

Cons

As the fastest growing B2B software company ever, growth expectations are incredibly high. As a company we're still figuring out goal-setting, because we're still relatively new and growing so fast. This can make it challenging to benchmark performance.
