Pros

High ownership at job. I like it. Some don't. This might mean that you get to do/have to do the work of 5 different roles. Pay is good. Easy to change roles across the company

Cons

Very difficult to excel and perform extra-ordinarily as everyone around you is a genius. Extremely geeky/nerdy culture

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
