Pros

- positive culture & fantastic, diverse team – the absolute best working environment, makes you happy to come to work, everyone is friendly, helpful, caring and inspiringly accomplished, I’m learning a lot from others and feel lucky to be working with such great people - supportive leadership – they are actively engaged, approachable, and genuinely invested in the success and wellbeing of the team, they make sure to find time for a chat and share impressive insights and advice while creating an atmosphere of trust and encouragement, it’s been a great pleasure to work together and have them as mentors - career progression opportunities – the company offers paths for growth for employees on all levels, there are also extra courses and training options, managers are actively encouraging personal development, which for me is very important - good salary – I think a compensation package is competitive within the industry, there are also annual salary reviews and a few good benefits - exciting work & room for creative freedom – I’m able to work on innovative projects and directly contribute to making an impact on the company, which keeps me motivated and the work thoroughly engaging - fun socials – regular team socials and other fun initiatives like a book club, which makes it fun to meet up and spend time with colleagues after hours

Cons

- occasional high workload - there are instances where the workload can be demanding, however, it's still super enjoyable and it’s very normal for a start-up.
