fast growing company and awesome team in the US

Pros

we are growing super fast and opening offices in new york and austin. the culture is entrepreneurial and "all hands on deck" as we try to hit targets and hopefully IPO in a couple of years. US expansion is a big focus for the company and everyone is collaborative and supportive, with not a lot of politics. flexible work life balance and we are currently 2 days in office with lunch provided

Cons

The CEO can be difficult to work with but i rarely interface with him so it doesn't affect my day to day - my actual team is awesome. working across time zones can be challenging because we have colleagues in EMEA and APAC, but everyone respects boundaries and I never have meetings too late into the night
