Pros
Never seen a CEO with such a drive to succeed. Full of smart people from a variety of backgrounds, including collaborating with teams internationally. Ability to make a direct and visible impact on the company, which is not always possible as an engineer. My team works primarily remotely, but still enjoy the office culture of a tight-knit group of co-workers and friends. Pay is ok, but like many a startup incentives are tied directly to our success.
Cons
As a startup, many processes and policies are still being developed. While pay is good, benefits are lackluster. Previous to this year, no formal process/policy for career growth and salary increases were instituted. Still waiting to see how well the new processes work, but the new performance reviews were easier to navigate than many of the previous companies I worked for. Unlimited PTO is nice, but like many a startup the pace makes it difficult to take advantage of it.

Pros
Not a lot. They provide lunch free of charge and that is pretty much the only perk.
Cons
Hyper exploitive. The wages are extremely low, far lower than a living wage. They expect oil field style hours. The managers are not on your side, they are going to promise a lot and deliver little. They regularly hire people with extensive engineering and/or technical experience at entry level positions and pay and then refuse to move them into more appropriate pay rates or positions. They will lie to you and gas light you if you mention the poor pay and work conditions. If you don't fake like you are a happy employ they will threaten to fire you. This is not a company for people who have families they want to see grow and who they need to care for financially. Management is not on your side.
