Pros

High profile startup brand Exposure to startup community Trying to be international Will need to get serious at some point about their infrastructure - so timing will be important.

Cons

Cultish - work for love of the company. Senior management needs investment Trying to do things on a shoe string budget Trading on Brand only gets so far Highly exploitative culture. Very insular Not international - though they think they are.
