Pros

- Incredible culture (which is still evident even while working remote - I personally joined the team mid-pandemic) - Very competitive pay - Management actually *wants* to be in management, and cares about team development as their top priority (have worked at other SaaS companies where this was not the case) - Great work life balance (ex/ Fri-yay days off) - Set up to succeed in terms of resources (given $1,000 USD for home office set up), also given $ for wifi bills etc - Everyone in the company is so friendly and willing to help (we have 1:1s set up with other employees from other teams/offices, and everyone is truly so open to meeting and learning from one another/just chatting to ensure that we are all feeling heard during these trying times)

Cons

- Can't think of any... can't wait to eventually get into the office hopefully summer of 2021!
