Pros

- Great and smart people to work with and learn from - Leadership listens and takes action, with no rigid hierarchy - Engineers care about the code quality and using the latest technologies, they spend time upgrading old codes and resolving tech debts - Lots of opportunities to grow and learn - Enough opportunity for anyone who wants to be hands-on projects - Competetive salary

Cons

- No work-life balance - Unrealistic deadlines - You get the feeling that managers and leaders don't care about the employees and just care about the product

Pros

• Drop makes it clear to understand why you're doing something and provides just the right amount of direction to work towards. • A lot of teams claim to be "transparent" and "agile". Drop is one of the few companies that actually follows this methodology everyday. • Great work-life balance.

Cons

• Easy to work more than the regular 9-5. Startups often see this as a positive, but I don't agree. It's not required, just seems slightly encouraged.
