Pros

Remote, good benefits and pay

Cons

They do not want you to ever sleep. You're paid well to work around the clock. People get tired and burnt from constant changes, blame game, disrespectful behaviour and lack of support from our own leaders.

Pros

- The people are awesome. I genuinely enjoy and have so much fun with the people I work with. Makes working remotely a lot easier, although you do have office options if you live in a hub! - Leadership tries to be as transparent as possible, which is refreshing coming from another big tech company. - Little corporate BS, and company values high execution and getting rid of all of the fluff as much as possible - So many opportunities to learn new things and stretch your skillset. Critical for folks that are still early in their careers! - Benefits are so amazing. Hard to compare to other companies.

Cons

- Classic startup cons, but work life balance can definitely struggle at times. I think we're pretty transparent about that though during interviews so folks know what they're signing up for! - Diversity at senior leadership could be way better, specifically for women and POCs. - Not a super clear career growth path, but there are always opportunities to learn new things and get involved in new projects.
