Pros

Fast moving start-up culture, lots of opportunities to travel, lots of other perks (e.g. free snacks and drinks, free LL Bean jackets and bags).

Cons

Chaotic environment at the whim of reacting to launching a viable product that must swim or sink. Employees do not get to share in the creation of the vision or even understand what it truly means for their own roles. Management will tell employees otherwise. However, directives are handed down and employees are expected to race forward with them with no time for thoughtful consideration or discussion. Hard for employees to surface what issues they are having and get them resolved. If you are looking to experience what the early stages of a start-up is like this may be the place for you. Otherwise, experienced professionals looking for real career development and growth should wait until this company matures and has had a chance to establish some structure.

Pros

There are some very dedicated, talented and well intentioned people who work there. For awhile it felt like the organization was building and doing great things. The salary felt fairly competitive with the industry standard.

Cons

Don't look too closely under the hood if you don't want to stop believing in the illusion. The product is no longer as strong as it once was, the PD and CS have gone way downhill, they care more about profit than people and they are no longer mission driven but success and money driven. They talk a good game, but many people there are ruthless so watch your back. They do a good job of making you feel like it's the best place to work and you are lucky to be there, for awhile, but when the blook is off the rose, watch out.
