Incredibly talented people across the company. Great opportunities for learning and growth. Flexible workplace and great culture with a "people first" focus! Appreciate the weekly company meetings with updates/transparency on what's happening across the company!

Being a tech company, we have to move fast. Not a "con" unless someone doesn't like change.
