Great perks, office is attractive; and some really great people (Payments team).
Would have liked to work there longer, but just wasn't the right fit.
Cons
So many, where to begin:
- Pay is average
- Staff are demoted from changes
- Still waiting on IPO (can you believe that they're at Series F funding?)

Pros
There is a lot of new leadership breathing newness into the company. There is a rebrand on the horizon, different focuses and positioning, complimentary portfolio products, brilliant staff, new company values and more.
Cons
There has been a ton of change and while the new leadership is great, they are still getting their touch on things. This isn't all so much a con in general as it is to absorb, communicate, explain and soak in.

Pros
- BC hires great people
- Is finally focusing on the product and its ideal customer rather than trying to be a product that it isn't.
- Supportive culture
- Good work life balance
- Senior and Director leadership is caring and supportive
- Really positive outlook for the product
Cons
- Has cut 10% of staff every year for the last 3 years and last year they cut most of their top performers that brought in the most revenue
- No 401k match (although they may now)
- Lower pay than most tech companies for the same roles
- Either BC has the right people in place or they have the right direction to work in with the right leadership but never both
- If you are remote, you aren't invited to the office much even for kick offs or planning. So you will feel a bit secluded.
- Not much room for career growth as they keep cutting people
