Pros

Great office with lots of drinks and snacks, free food, and coffee. Lots of great people. My manager and leadership are really supportive. Flexibility in working from home and well-being leave (sick leave). You can work from home pretty much every day if you are not in sales. Extra leaves the company provides on top of 4 weeks PTO

Cons

Lots of cost-cutting. They are reducing benefits such as free coffee hours, proteins in the office to name a few. Management is changing the NZ heritage to more US hustle culture.

Pros

The team is super smart and everyone knows their stuff well. If you see an opportunity, you can take it and do it. Flat structure, less authority means you can experiment and do as much as you want.

Cons

There's not much of an onboarding, so you have to figure things out. It can feel very sink or swim. Also, you have to work across many different time zones as well, because the team is global. Also, people have very short fuses if you don't pick things up quickly or not as smart as them.
