Pros

Great product that really impacts and helps people, lots of interesting data challenges, great work life balance and good people. Growth opportunities are ok, but the company isn't growing quickly right now.

Cons

If you're not married or about to be, you might feel out of place. Technology organization is huge and disorganized, making getting things done across teams difficult. The company is not as data driven as it should be.

There is always a learning curve when joining a new company, especially while understanding internal systems and processes, but the team has been very supportive.
