Pros

Love the environment, very different from the big MNCs or traditional Asian sort of company. No micromanaging, a lot of responsibilities (don't worry it's manageable) and a lot of fun. Every day is different so work isn't boring. We have a cool office! Everyone is very helpful, if there's anything you want to know, you can just ask and the "open" attitude is real. Even when others are busy they won't be rude or anything they would arrange a separate time to teach you stuff. A really diverse office with people from all over the world, so you can learn lots about other cultures as well. Making mistakes doesn't make you a loser or criminal here, the focus is very much on understanding what went wrong and then moving on, try not to make the same mistake. If you're looking for something with a human touch, a place where there is recognition for the person you are, not just where you're from or what background you have, come and give it a try. Most of us are fun people (i think :p) Free food and drinks quite often too (;

Cons

Honestly hard to find one, but for now our coffee machine isn't ready yet... but soon.. soon it will be.... perrrrrfect.

Pros

- You're helping to build a truly useful and loved product - You have complete autonomy and freedom to decide the most impactful thing you want to work on, very entrepreneurial. - The company is fast growing, giving you lots of opportunities to grow. - The people here are incredibly smart, fun and hardworking. Spending your day with good people is a huge plus! - The culture and mission is not corporate bull, and it is actually used to drive the people to make the right decisions for our customers - Lots of great perks and a fun office space

Cons

- The size the company is getting to and the fact each team is autonomous can make it difficult to know what everyone is doing - There is little hand-holding so figuring out where you fit and how best to make an impact at the beginning can be tough - Clear career progression how you would see in an older company is not there

Cons

-Not really a con, but the level of independence and proactivity required is not for everyone
