Pros

- Highly transparent, entrepreneurial, autonomous culture. - Accountability over approval. Move fast, make the right (data-driven) decisions, and don't let bureaucracy/process slow you down. - Lots of hard and interesting problems to solve. We're moving atoms with bits. - Tons of upside potential for the business and lots of room for individual growth. - Still a great ground-level opportunity. Helping to shape important product/policy/processes every day. - No excuses. People get things done here.

Cons

- This is not a place for you if you need a lot of process/structure to succeed - Be prepared to work as hard as everyone around you, which is really hard. I don't actually see/hear anyone complaining excessively about the hours though because everyone's so into what we're doing here.

Pros

I love being able to work around truly passionate people who are ready to change the world. The culture is great, free snacks and food is big plus. I had the opportunity to take ownership of projects within my first month

Cons

The hours are much longer than any other job I've worked in, but this is expected to change as we continue hiring more help
