Pros
- Innovative product solving challenging problem - Big addressable market - Impressive revenue for its stage - Friendly in-person environment and co-workers - Company-wise travel (Egypt this year) - 2 remote work days every week
Cons
- Still figuring out product market fit - Under-defined product. Takes months to understand what it is - Slow progress (in hiring, product development, replying messages on Slack) - People leave frequently (2 execs/2 VPs left in ~6 months of joining, recruiters left in a couple months, even executive assistant left in a few months) - Insecure/inexperienced founders who are often egotistical - Muted culture - Lack of management/feedback - Subjectively unethical. Workers in Egypt are invited to meetings after midnight - Lots of manual work to deliver - Low compensation package - Need to pay 20% for insurance - Could benefit from more transparency
