All about the people...until they're not
Pros
"Culture" is okay. Decent pay, plenty of time off, lots of events and other fun perks.
Cons
If you're a person of color though they fully expect you to be minimal in your expectation or the addressing of equity. Despite their growth, they're happy to leave you at a middling building with almost no support for as long as it serves their purposes. No amount of performance, effort, work, discussion, or other will affect that. Can't shake the feeling of deceit after hearing how the owner talks a great game about how important people are to the company and driving communities forward. Then as they gear up to go public they release a few hundred people with no warning, prior performance issues, or other concerns. They took decent care of everybody but for a company that prides itself on "We", don't forget that they're a business first and foremost, and ultimately you don't matter to them.
