Pros

The company went through ups and downs, and now it's back to a growth phase again. With growth comes growth pains - including lack of maturity in management - but it also means there's always something new and exciting happening. You get to work with incredibly smart and talented colleagues who are passionate about what they do. The problems we tackle are challenging and require innovative solutions, which keeps the work interesting and engaging. The mission is real. The environment is both collaborative and relaxing, promoting a healthy work-life balance. There's a strong sense of teamwork, and people are always willing to help each other out.

Cons

- There have been some organizational challenges as we scale up. - There have been layoffs, which can be unsettling and affect morale. - The path to IPO remains unclear, which can create some uncertainty about the company's long-term direction.

Pros

Great insurance. Learning Stipends, etc

Cons

-Senior leadership only cares about what is new and shiny. -They treat AI like a religion. Forcing everyone to use AI for everything as though we don't realize that the end goal is to eliminate our roles - All Hands Meetings every month where Senior Leadership pats themselves on the back while ignoring any existing issues. - Support is treated like a necessary evil instead of a fundamental part of doing business. Would prefer to ship the roles overseas or replace with AI - Extremely high attrition for Senior Leadership.
