      Business outlook

      Pros

      Great work life balance, compelling mission, good workplace culture. Awesome amount of paid time off

      Cons

      Low pay for engineers. Doing a good job is rewarded with a paper certificate and pat on the back. Don’t expect a promotion and if you do get one don’t expect much of a raise
