- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
- Wonderful culture with a very transparent, accessible and competent leadership team. - Plenty of autonomy on how to build your product and do what's best for the company - Flexibility and encouragement of positive work life balance - Highly talented and ambitious colleagues that push you to push yourself. Everyone is a high achiever.

Nothing out of the ordinary for a successful, rapidly scaling company. Change is a constant but this is not necessarily a con depending on your viewpoint.

Continue reading - Current Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
The onboarding has been the best i've ever had in a company - I'm two weeks in and already have had a discussion with one of the founders. The transparency with the upper leadership is something I have never experienced before and surprises me each time it happens. I can already see the culture in the office and the company being amazing and very inclusive. I've only been here 2 weeks and already feel totally involved in the companies future
Cons
I have none to report yet!
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
- positive people who seem really motivated - environment that encourages learning and continually advancing skills - discussions focus on the impact of work first, rather than on first aiming to use up everyone's time or please senior personalities - company seems like it has a bright future - ESOP might we worth a lot in the future - good pay - flexible with in-office / WFH arrangements - fun
Cons
- not really a con, but big goals can require big resilience as we encounter roadblocks and must find repeatedly find ways around them (if you hate it when yearly or multi-year goals change implementation strategies or timelines then you might prefer a less ambitious and more low-risk-low-reward business) - also not really a con, but it's growing and changing so if you hate change and people talking about growth then this might not be the place for you
