Pros

I didn't get to begin the job which I will go into detail below but the pros (at the time of signing employment) -very good salary -remote work Possibly a good place to work once they get over the start up phase.

Cons

This is my first time ever leaving a Glassdoor Review. I had read some of the reviews on this company about job cuts 90 days into employment for underperfomance which is something I could agree with. But what I didn't expect was to be called 4 days before my job began to be told that my offer of employment (which I signed a month prior to) had been rescinded along with many others. These others included people who were in their first week of employment, and those in the onboarding process who the company actually just purchased flights to training for. To make matters worse, HR called me earlier that morning to get my documents for direct deposit set up. I had quit my previous job on Dec 30, 2019 in preparation to begin this job on January 6, 2020.

Pros

Plenty of opportunities to work on real-world machine learning problems, exposure to large-scale data, supportive colleagues, fast-paced culture that encourages growth and continuous learning.

Cons

Work-life balance can be challenging at times due to tight deadlines, rapid changes in priorities, and the need to adapt quickly in a high-pressure startup-like environment.
