Pros

Remote work environment offers flexibility. Office perks and HQ is top notch. Github product is still the de facto standard for developers and this helps when looking for your next job

Cons

It's hard to run the company effectively without a CEO and with leadership team that is constantly changing. Politics is rewarded over doing great work and everyone is only looking out for themselves as a result. Some of the best people I've worked with have left the company because of the toxic culture.
