Pros

Truly inspiring leadership team who are deeply knowledgeable thoughtful and mission-driven. The people here are genuinely passionate about what we're building and why it matters. Very strong collaborative culture and strong sense of support across teams - people here want you to succeed

Cons

High standards come with high expectations. The pace is extremely fast and the bar is very high. This is a place that pushes you to work autonomously, contribute and grow. For some people that intensity might not be a fit but for people who are motivated to build, learn and operate at a high level, it's exactly the point
