Pros

The people are very smart, motivated to do a great job, and happy to lend a hand to a fellow co-worker. Pay is good, and leadership is trying to improve. The product is interesting to work on and the future seems very interesting.

Cons

There is a disdain for "work-life balance". People are expected to put in long hours often; some of the management is trying to change this. The processes are confusing, and there this company observes the absolute bare minimum of holidays.

Pros

Cool office & perks, unlimited PTO.

Cons

My manager ultimately stabbed me in the back. Being a recruiter here is a trap. No one has your back, your are just an order taker and every stakeholder has unrealistic and unfair expectations. The founders have their hand in the entire recruiting process and it makes it so unbelievably hard. They want top talent but have not top talent pay. They are not flexible on RTO so good luck.
