Pros

Observable is a great place to work and the only place I've worked that I'd recommend to a friend. Leadership really cares about employees as people. I feel like my voice is respected and there are no brilliant jerks here. There is a genuine culture of respect and everyone is given the psychological safety to try something and fail, without the person being seen as a failure. The team truly loves to collaborate and there are so many opportunities to pair program. The compensation and benefits are amazing.

Cons

Observable is still a startup so selecting the right tools and processes to get tasks done can be a challenge.
