Pros

The team that Blair, the founder, has assembled are incredibly smart, passionate, and dedicated - with just enough humour and sarcasm to take the edge off. People around here truly trust one another and if you make it in to this tight-knit team, you feel like you're working amongst good friends. There's a strong sense of purpose around the office, the organization is totally transparent, and the support from our leadership team, advisors and investors (who are the real deal) is awesome. I've never been treated better than I have during my time with this company. The perks are exhaustive: - Breakfasts, Lunches + Dinners provided daily, totally free of charge. - Significant budget for personal improvement, software licenses, hardware, travel, cell phone subsidies, team events. - 100% employer covered benefits (extending to family members). - Meaningful stock-options packages. - Company funded group-study on topics from finance, to scaling companies, to product management.

Cons

- Rigorous interview process - Fairly demanding workload
