Pros

- Relatively modern tech stack across the board - Plenty of room for personal growth - Manager trusts employees decisions if they're backed up with data/experience, allowing for both changes and new/modern approaches to existing code - Good work/life balance (overtime is very rare) - Friendly team - Very good future business outlook - Weekly manager calls focused on personal growth and discussing ideas - No sprints or pointless Agile. Stories/epics get done as they come, everyone is honest and does their work on time. - Fully remote nature comes with lots of flexibility

Cons

- Needs quite a few more devs - Not as much of a con, as more of an informative point, the place may not suit those who prefer close guidance, as team members are expected to tackle challenges on their own first, with limited direct supervision. - There is some tech debt that needs handling before moving on to grander features. - Would be nice to have more in person team meetings due to fully remote nature

Pros

A fun, hard working team that wears its heart on its sleeve! There are big goals and aspirations, which are shared and felt throughout the company. Sr. Leadership is the definition of lead by example and love to collaborate, discuss big picture decisions, and take feedback from all employees. I'm so happy I joined this team and I can't wait to be apart of its future growth and success.

Cons

If you are a *clock in, clock out* worker this is not the place for you. Everybody works hard, goes the extra mile, and expects the same from each other.

Pros

Leadership genuinely cares about the company mission and the people. You really feel like you're contributing meaningfully and your work matters. Lots of transparency across the team on all fronts. High talent density without ego - people are smart, kind, and focused. Culture is relaxed and collegial - expectations are high but so is support. Pay is good for a startup. Overall, a great place to work!

Cons

Still a startup so can get pulled into tasks outside your formal job description - not the best fit for someone looking for a cushy structured environment.
