Pros

Cons

- Things change constantly - Performance expectations are high, not everyone makes the cut which can be daunting - The pressure to move fast means there is not a lot of room to test and perfect things

Pros

- Opportunity to work on many / diverse tasks - Work tackles more interesting problems (Insurance AI) than most corporate jobs - Young team, very smart people from top universities - Little bureaucracy

Cons

- Management has very PR-focused mindset (including carefully curated Glassdoor profile) at the expense of substance. This demotivates the smartest people in the company and is part of the reason the company experiences high turnover / employee drain - Ineffective team discipline resulting in project delivery inefficiencies - Negligible stock options - Overall not a killer career move, but with possibility to be a good stepping stone - Long hours relative to pay (startup typical)
