Pros

The company tries hard to be inclusive, and competitive with bigger companies they compete with for employees. The amount of hiring is exponential and constantly opens up new roles. Tons of great benefits, 21 days of pto, winter break, and more.

Cons

Growing pains. The path to grow into another position is very unclear. Everyone eventually takes on tasks outside of their job description with little to no training on how to be successful at it. Management is either inexperienced or doesn't have enough training on being a manager.

Pros

Really smart people, fun to work and collaborate with other teams which happens a lot because everyone is building rigorously. The benefits are top tier, and the company has seen explosive growth. Exec team is very approachable and in the day to day, a lot of face time with them.

Cons

Can be noisy with all the growth and production going on right next to admin employees, but it's better than not having a thriving company.
