Pros
This is my first time working at a tech company, and it's a start-up. So far, so great! Really. I am treated with fairness, respect, equality and I use my brain everyday to help others around the world with big goals in mind at all times. As someone who has struggled in their career, it's great to produce a product and share it with the world to help others in this time of ongoing economic uncertainty. I have many friends who need a job and all of them find Glassdoor incredible helpful once they visit the site. As for as pros, it's relaxing, comfortable, creative and I get to work from home at times, too. Best work environment I've been in by far. It's exciting to see where we will go and be on the forefront of making it happen, too!
Cons
I do now understand what people mean by "start-up culture." Not a bad thing by any means, but we do work hard and try our best to perfect everything so we can share it with the world. As we grow, it gets tougher to remember everyone's name, but that's a good thing too, that we continue to expand so rapidly. I think senior management will do a good job at keeping the small family-like culture in tact as some people worry about that draining as any small company increases in size.
