Pros

A great place to work with other strong engineers, with space to develop yourself and make a real contribution. Engaged with the community, running open source meetups. Fantastic Melbourne office, and opportunity to travel to San Francisco with time and seniority.

Cons

Split office with San Francisco means more meetings to keep people on the same page, as with other global companies. Subtle culture differences between offices.

Pros

Australian company with an office in Oakland Ca. Fully remote position. Very chill environment. Laid back leadership approach. Expectations were reasonable. Although the mission was never terribly clear. And then the position was ended a year into it. Laid off with a pretty decent severance package.

Cons

C-level management was never very clear on what our mission was. Pretty sure they knew they were going to lay us off when they hired us. They just needed a few stop-gap lower managers.
