Pros

Remote work - though they are wanting to return to office Good leave and benefits They hire lots of lovely smart people

Cons

Founders live on a different planet. They only keep and promote yes-men who never disagree with them. They think they are visionary but they just don't listen to anyone who disagrees with them, and what's worse, they squash or fire them. I know of 10+ cases (in the last year) where they have essentially fired people without due process, by threatening them with a low performance rating and subsequent firing, after never having had a problem before, simply because they disagreed with them. They have no leadership training, they do not try to fix any relationships, help improve performance, they just pay people enough to not go to the CCMA and terminate them. The only way to survive an progress in this company is by joining the cult of blind loyalty. The problem is the company will not survive that, because yes-men just tell you what you want to hear and then you make long term bad decisions which result in two retrenchment rounds in two years and many dodgy terminations after that. Many good people in the organisation stay longer than they want to simply because of good benefits and slow workload, because they struggle to find that elsewhere. Do NOT join the data team. Many good people have been hurt here

Pros

Incredibly supportive company. Amazing culture. Work with really smart people. Take responsibility for yourself to get stuff done.

Cons

Teams are still pretty small with great workload. This is not somewhere you come to settle and be comfortable. You will be stretched and it really is fast paced with high expectations, that is not just used as a buzz word.
