Pros

- Sharp product & customer-focused company - Work-life balance is solid. You can put your phone down unless on-call after 8pm - A very technical group of people - Tons of learning opportunities

Cons

- Grew fast and there are typical growing pains/Typical public company stuff & bureaucracy incoming - A lot of cooks in the kitchen - management is new to management and that shows
