Pros
- will work with some of the most talented engineers and designers around - have an opportunity to build two businesses at the same time with the outdoor markets and emerging markets (and all the challenges that come with doing two things at once) - generally transparent culture with tight knit team that's been together for a while - office in dumbo, which is a great neighborhood - company genuinely cares about having a positive impact on the world
Cons
- company has struggled with some growing pains, primarily things like QA processes, supply chain challenges, some culture and HR issues - ambitious product launch and growth plans have required a lot of work and long hours for extended periods, which has strained team resources and morale more recently - trying to do a lot of things and not as well resourced as some other 'start ups', means things can feel pretty lean at times which can be painful - young team, mostly a pro, somewhat inexperienced management, sometimes a con
