Pros

The benefits here are amazing - full health, lunch and dinner every day, Audible membership, gym, books every quarter, phone, etc. I had high hopes for working at Affirm before I joined but I didn't know it would be this amazing. The people are geniuses, the work is incredibly fulfilling, our mission isn't just aspirational but we're already making a huge difference in peoples' lives. Working for a company with experienced, and successful, founders and execs makes an enormous difference for the size of company we are now AND for the company we're building towards. There is a proactive approach to the success of the company that lends itself well to the folks we attract for the team. I've personally loved hearing more about our long term plans and the possibly impossible goal of re-inventing financial services.

Cons

We don't do a great job of talking about the broader mission. Also, we need more conference rooms :)
