Pros

Great people, super friendly and low ego, leadership is always interested in learning and growing, and work life balance is good though there is on-call which usually isn't too bad

Cons

The company is still in early stages and priorities can change quickly which can be frustrating

Pros

Puzzle is a remote-first company - there is no expecting in-office time at all. There are 2 'off site' trips/year that are mandatory, but they are held at fun locations (San Fran, Palm Springs, Jackson, WY, etc). Tech stack is typescript (front and back end) + React, and a little Python. I'm really impressed with the talent of everyone at the company.

Cons

Medical benefit premiums are expensive for a family (premiums are 100% free for employee), no 401k match, but otherwise solid benefits.

Pros

I find the work equally challenging and rewarding. The problems we tackle are complex and require innovative solutions, which keeps me engaged and motivated. Our product also addresses a real market need, which adds a sense of purpose to daily tasks. The culture minimizes unnecessary meetings, allowing ample time to focus on development and problem-solving without constant interruptions. Further, the flexibility to work remotely is a significant attractor to me. I get to to be as head's down as I need in an environment that suits my needs, and really benefits the work-life balance. The team is truly remarkable.

Cons

Due to the rapid growth of the team, we have experienced several rounds of changes in internal processes. While I trust that these changes are necessary for scaling, they can sometimes be disruptive and are not yet fully optimized. The workload can occasionally become overwhelming because there is so much to get done. One notable thing is the CEO's tendency to use a blunt-tone when addressing the team. It can affect team morale (especially with newcomers who don't yet realize that it's mostly a communication-style used to emphasize urgency and import)
