Pros
- Working at the forefront of learned image and video compression technology. - You are always surrounded by very talented and friendly people who are always willing to be a sounding board for ideas (often regardless of what team they’re in!). - Founders often keep the rest of the company in-the-loop about business decisions and long-term plans. This makes you feel more attuned to the impact your work can have, and often serves as good motivation for your projects. Moreover, the founders are very open to any questions you might have about the company and its future directions. - A very relaxed and flexible WFH policy. - There is cultural diversity among the employees. - Company socials are regularly scheduled and can serve as nice ways to bond with people from other teams.
Cons
