Pros

Remote-friendly workplace, colleagues were very nice

Cons

Senior management are not fit for purpose IMO. CEO constantly oversteps (even for a CEO) and will rudely question your opinion or expertise in front of your colleagues. On two encounters he used vile language to me, saying I was full of s@@@. This was after I tell him that something he wants is impossible. No way to behave - my own children wouldn't behave like this. Incredible that the man is let run this company by the VC. On top of this, senior management under the CEO are unwilling to challenge him in any way. So you can expect zero backup when he does start cursing at you and questioning your expertise. I have worked in a number of very successful startups, with one becoming a unicorn. None of these companies would have succeeded at all if they had this CEO. A hilariously small, childish man.
