Pros

Pay Travel Product market fit Great eng/data sci/international folks Opportunity to work on cutting edge fin tech products Annual hack week is fun Free lunch

Cons

No culture - Founder of cash app brags about having no “mission statement” in our all hands. Justifies it by saying business is booming Product team is generally smart but cliquey Ops team is full of con artists and sharks. Beware Designers are decent but work out of a diff office Did I already mention the CEO is non-existent?
