Pros

The people at the company are motivated and work with a sense of urgency. Everyone I worked with cared about what they were doing. Standard perks and benefits of a tech company go without saying. Opportunity to be creative to develop and own projects that might be outside the scope of typical day-to-day work.

Cons

Like any fast-paced, high-growth company, work hours can be long and demanding. Maintaining a healthy work-life balance is challenging at times (especially since the work is rewarding), but they do their best to encourage it. Unlimited vacation policy has always rubbed me the wrong way, but to each their own on this.

Pros

Remote first culture. If you want freedom of location and a company to truly mean and support it - this is the place.

Cons

Constant change. Nothing to hold on to in this role, compensation, KPI's, tools all change every quarter.

Pros

High comp and AI forward. One of the few remote places left.

Cons

Upper management basically openly disdains the “working class”, and it’s a major jostle among the VP and Director level for currying favor with the CEO. The investment in AI tooling is smart but also the C suite majorly suffers from AI psychosis, it’s embarrassing, actually.
