Pros

Brilliant mission with a founder who clearly wants to make the world a better place, not just get rich Very structured progression framework, much more so than any other early stage business I’ve worked at Pays well, has (genuinely) unlimited holiday with a minimum holiday you have to take (I think 25 days or you get in trouble), free therapy, remote first business so can work from anywhere in the world whenever you’d like Anna (ops director) is SO good

Cons

Product is currently mid-pivot for the third or fourth time since the company was founded. It’s positive that management recognise when it’s needed and take action (instead of just being stuck on a path until they run out of money), but I found it hard to understand what the aim is / where they want to go / how they’ll get there. Did two rounds of redundancies whilst I was there and also had quite a few people leave as well
