Pros

potentially interesting product with high potential upside

Cons

Very grindy with slow decision making. Decisions made by committee with an outdated tech stack. Once the magic of robots wears off it is old school IT practices

Pros

Checks all the boxes for perks, benefits etc Very rare to operate at the scale we are operating at with such a relatively small headcount. Some areas of the company have some of the smartest people on the planet but its very uneven. Work for the right team.

Cons

The company is in a pretty tough spot. An extremely big opportunity but it requires a big step up in our ability to execute and we have to do it while we double our installs every year. The current product is not touch-free enough and we aren't spending the focused time to harden the existing product versus adding new features, scaling, etc.

No work life balance. Can get fired at any time.

Pros

Technology is transformative. Could be a great place to work in 5-10 years. Lots of opportunity to grow.

Cons

But there's absolutely no work life balance. Work every weekend. Travel at a whim. Very reactive and blame culture. Lack of trust between senior leaders and across peer group. Very little understanding or clear picture into what success is so easy to finger point and blame. Unless things change drastically, I couldn't recommend this place to anyone.
