Pros

It’s amazing to work at a small startup where everyone believes that we will become a billion dollar public company eventually, and where we’re all working to make that happen. It’s going to be a wild ride all the way there. We’re working on several incredibly hard problems at once: turning unstructured data into structured data, developing state-of-the-art unsupervised machine algorithms, processing huge amounts of data using distributed computation techniques. I love coming to work with some of the smartest minds in AI, and that includes our CEO. Our team of highly focused engineers is building features that have direct and immediate business impacts on our huge enterprise and government customers.

Cons

The “get s*** done” culture is not for everyone. We know that none of us can afford to have a bad week, because we’re all so critical to the team and lean, and because there are so many challenges to be tackled.

Pros

Though Text IQ is growing rapidly, particularly following our recent Series A funding, the company manages to maintain a close-knit start-up environment that allows for real cohesion of the team, which is particularly impressive considering that we have team members spread out over four offices in three different countries! Whereas some tech companies have reputations for internal cutthroat competition, Text IQ's team members are compelled to perform at their highest levels not to one up anyone, but rather to bolster everyone and contribute to our collective success. Working in a culture where you know everyone has your back is certainly reassuring and also seems to spark greater productivity, as everyone is motivated to do their part and go above and beyond with the aim of propelling Text IQ to the next level. The infectious enthusiasm of the co-founders inspires this level of dedication, ensuring that Text IQ will continue to grow and prosper as we look ahead to an even brighter future!

Cons

In a still small company, it is difficult to fly under the radar. While that is not actually a "CON," it's important that anyone who is considering working for Text IQ knows that 100% dedication is expected, and as mentioned above, the majority of our team is more than willing to invest the time and effort necessary to excel in their roles.
