Pros

Above average compensation. Really great coworkers. Decent benefits. Reasonably interesting work.

Cons

No more engineering management: fired earlier this year apparently. It's a big reason I joined this company was because of the maturation that I saw happening, but then they gutted it. Product direction is all over the place and priorities shift constantly because of how small the team is. They need to make up their mind and finalize an actual engineering team -- with good management.

Pros

Fully remote / work from home. Amazing mission. Founder-led. Young and fast-growing.

Cons

The same as at any young / fast-growing business; constantly outgrowing systems!
