Pros

People, leadership, and product are all great. The thing I appreciate most is how the company's culture is very anti-corporate politics. There's no room for BS here and it's a breath of fresh air for anyone used to the typical rodeo that is working in tech. They hire some seriously talented people to learn and grow alongside, and it shows, since the company is profitable and doing well. Remote work life balance is also fantastic.

Cons

I've been looking for the red flags since I started and haven't found any. Maybe if you're a person not comfortable with rapid changes, and are used to being handed a playbook, it could be overwhelming. They give you autonomy to take ownership over your work and find your way to succeed. That will be empowering to some, but maybe daunting to others.

Two Thumbs Up

Pros

- Amazing culture and people. - The company is stable, bootstrapped and profitable but all 3 founders are still here and engaged. Senior leadership beside founders is also good and together they make decisions that make sense. - Actually good work/life balance. Company gets stuff done and you'll grow without blowing up your personal life.

Cons

- Being pure remote is tough getting started anywhere, but due to everyone being so smart and well-rounded and focus on async remote, it felt especially intimidating at first coming into this environment. But if you do your best it all falls away.

Thank you so much for sharing! If you're new to a fully remote, async team, it can certainly feel challenging. But we're so happy to hear things became more comfortable as you settled in. Our team is committed to making onboarding feel welcoming and supportive so your feedback really helps us continue improving 🙏🏼
