      Pros

      * Supportive teammates * Great culture * Freedom to fail * Amazing benefits

      Cons

      * Learning how to be a public company comes with a lot of new challenges. The company as a whole is learning how to deal with that. * It can be difficult to work your way into new roles internally.

      Great place to work

      Senior software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Interesting problems to solve. Smart, fun, caring coworkers. Overall the most transparent place I've worked. Focused on increasing diversity. Good perks and compensation. Feel empowered to try new things and make changes.

      Cons

      The company is getting quite big so sometimes getting things done can take a while (compared to a startup). Being in a remote office sometimes makes it hard to feel like part of the rest of the greater company, however, over the short time I've been here so far, it's gotten better! The review process doesn't seem consistent across engineering which can make it hard for people to all feel like they are getting and able to provide useful feedback.

      Pros

      - lots of challenging problems - great team - great culture - interesting tech stack

      Cons

      - hard to get code reviews sometimes as it's hard to determine the owner of a particular piece of functionality. - if you're not familiar with hack lang it's tough to get going
