Pros

Working with smart, hard-working, and committed professionals that aren't "fake nice" but are genuinely kind people is a refreshing change of pace. I feel like we're fighting the good fight together towards common goals, vs. competing with each other to be the top of the stack. Benefits are great, especially for a pre-IPO company, and the perks are nice. The food, beverages, and snacks are great. Generous time off (take as much as you need to recharge), and a non-hierarchical management make this place stand out. I love that the CEO, Co-Founder, and other Sr. Leaders are accessible, and that there's a weekly Q&A where we can ask questions and get updates on the company.

Cons

Sometimes the need to get consensus slows things down a little, but on the other hand it also helps us avoid a lot of rework when people aren't bought in.
