Pros

Salary was good initially, it's slowly getting eaten away by inflation. Decent benefits (WFH, wellbeing allowances).

Cons

Expect constant strategic whiplash with leadership pivots every few months and little acknowledgment of what didn't work before. When the Series B fell through, the CTO conveniently took the fall to appease investors. CEO claimed to take "full responsibility" in an all-hands, then immediately announced massive layoffs. The cognitive dissonance was remarkable.

Pros

Working at Sano was one of the best internships I have ever had. Everyone cares about the company's mission and values and hold themselves to a high standard.

Cons

Fully remote work during the pandemic is probably the only con, but even still the team culture is so strong that it is never difficult to collaborate.

Pros

Remote work, good cause, good benefits package

Cons

Weak/nonexistent leadership, good benefits are used to trap people into staying in a bad situation, they will use you until you’re at your breaking point and then will let you go, they can’t choose a direction and don’t know who they are, be cautious and don’t trust anyone lightly if you decide to join!
