Pros

Company is growing at a healthy clip Work in a vibrant, modern, microservices architecture New stuff is happening all the time! In-house cafeteria serves great meals! Flexibility around taking care of family needs

Cons

Pretty much every engineer has to join a pager rotation. No separate ops/test roles. "Engineers" do everything. Lots of interrupt driven work Seems like there are a lot of half finished projects floating around No 401k match yet (promised after certain company wide financial goals are met)
