Pros

Strong mission and genuinely good people. High autonomy in my role, with room to choose the right approach and be recognized for impact. Feedback loops are excellent so far, and mentorship has been available when I’ve needed it. The pace can get high at times, but day-to-day is generally manageable. Comp and benefits are above market (for Argentina).

Cons

When supporting non-technical stakeholder groups, explaining data, uncertainty, and “bad news” can take significant extra effort. Getting alignment may require more influencing and education than expected, and data-driven recommendations don’t always land easily without additional narrative and change management.

Pros

Pay is good and product is for Social Good

Cons

There is little hope that our stock options will have value soon. Leadership often prioritized alignment over independent judgment, and despite major hires and restructuring, the company has struggled to deliver products with meaningful impact or market traction. Feedback largely flowed top-down, with dissent poorly received and limited room to challenge decisions. While some leaders projected openness, there was often a noticeable gap between image and reality, with culture seeming more focused on hierarchy and appearances than execution and results.
