Pros

- If you are motivated by making an impact, this is truly your best playground. I'm surrounded by smart people who aim to have a holistic view on the problems we're solving, no matter which department you're in. - Lots of untapped potentials in many of the departments. Since we are aiming to build a great company, with our exponential growth in the last few years and the current stage of our growth, there are a lot of rooms for us to transform the org into a well-oiled machine. By the time we reach the "well-oiled machine stage," we'll most likely outgrow that and pursue the next growth stage. This has been the funnest and most rewarding company I've ever worked at.

Cons

In the scale of work/life balance, many of us probably tip heavier on the work side than balance. But then again, most people aren't joining a startup company for work/life balance.

Pros

- great people - amazing product that sells itself once people get their hands on it - innovative company - decent ote and benefits

Cons

- comp plan this year for hunters is not aligned with company strategy of focusing on larger, multi-year commits. it incentivizes quantity of deals vs. quality of deals, and payouts on commit $$$ are peanuts.
