Pros

When I joined the company I was pleasantly surprised by the positive thinking and desire to work as a team. The company culture is presented as "no politics, everyone has hands in everything". The Founders presented themselves at my interviews as "there to serve others". Some people really goes out of their way to do the best they can, oftentime using their own personal time to bring that 120% on the table.

Cons

Unfortunately the reality of things is much different from the promise. A huge part of the company is made by people that does the minimum necessary or doesn't know what they're doing and don't care to improve or have different ideas from the company's priority and thus basically work for themselves. The "no politics" is only on paper and what really means is that the founders don't want to know about it but don't do anything actively to discourage it. The don't establish a clear line of hierarchy but have some people being clearly their "counselors". You are not helped in takeing initiative apart from speeches in which they tell you that "you should take initiatives". If any of your initiatives actually bring something good to the company, you're not rewarded nor economically neither in terms of career. The company has gone through a bad time in terms of middle-management recruited over the last two years and this can only be blamed on the founders. A couple of bad people can happen to pass the interviews. Everyone in key positions for two years should not happens. Especially when there are very good professional that distinguish themselves every other day and are not scared to takes more responsabilities. On top of that, the direction of the company feels like total chaos. One quarter the target is "producing content", the next is to "bring value to B2C" strategy, the next one is "screw B2C, let's focus on B2B approach". Ideas that are being transformed into MVP range from stale or nothing that would be going to "set the pace" on their market to "we read about this online and we like the buzzwords". The business plan seems like "let's throw everything on the wall and see what sticks".
