Pros
- Product and industry are worth being motivated for - Vote of confidence by leading investors - Inclusive and welcoming team dynamic - Humorous and intelligent co-workers that are excited to get to know you - Co-workers are from all over the U.S. and abroad. There is an opportunity to feel like you're getting some diversity in culture despite OC being quite the opposite - Capable leadership that want to iterate and get it right quickly - Management team cares about their employees and consider suggestions seriously - The company cares deeply about privacy and data ethics; it practices what it preaches - Pay is competitive
Cons
- Office location is quite difficult for people who do not enjoy the surf/hike/ski lifestyle - Could do with a bigger HR team so that operational staff are not overstretched - Some difficulty getting HR questions answered like correcting insurance numbers or getting 401Ks set up - Inconsistent messaging around WFH policies, it largely depends on your manager - Unlimited PTO is a little tricky to manage, especially when there is always work to be done. You don't want to be the person taking off when others don't.
