Pros

Working at Comprehend has given me the opportunity to expand my technical skillset beyond what I could have achieved at previous companies. Management is great about encouraging employees to seek out projects that they are interested in and to become involved. They are constantly evaluating and implementing new technology which makes the work interesting and fun. It is realistic to maintain a reasonable work/life balance working at Comprehend. Management and company policies are very flexible in terms of working hours, travel, time off, working from home, etc. Working at a startup like Comprehend is an exciting, faced-paced environment. You learn a ton and gain exposure to aspects of running a company that you might not get elsewhere.

Cons

With a fast-paced environment typically comes a lot of change. Often that can be good but is also something you just have to get used to.

Pros

(1) World-class VC-backing; (2) solving a deeply meaningful, real-world problem; with (3) product/market/business-model fit; and (4) a sales pipeline now bursting at the seams. If you are looking for more than that in a startup, God bless you. Yet there is more: Smart, down-to-earth founders with domain origins and deep technical expertise, a very warm, diligent team overall, and great work-life balance. ***Regarding the negative reviews from 2016 - all valid, from what I understand about about the history before I arrived and after. That said, the situation has improved significantly since and we are now very well positioned.

Cons

From the standpoint of gratitude, it's difficult to think of a bona fide con. To the extent there is opportunity cost in all things, that would be it.
