Pros

- No matter how big the company gets, it still has that small company feel. Meaning that there is a strong community feel to the organization. -Constant engineering man-power is put into the product, making it a best of breed product while staying ahead of the curve. -Management is always looking out for whats best for the individual as far as career growth goes, which is very rare for companies undergoing a lot of growth.

Cons

- As with any start-up, things are always changing so the ability to be flexible and be a "5-tool player" is crucial.

Pros

- product is fantastic which is becoming more and more rare with startups - culture is that of a start up that allows you to own your career, promotions are merit based and earned - leadership willing to do what it takes to help you succeed whether thats investing in your progression or being more hands on day to day

Cons

- at times asked to wear many hats - being adaptable on the fly is a requirement that surprises some - but its what you get with every startup
