Pros
With great QA and leadership, I'm able to keep raising the bar with my work and watch my abilities grow. I feel like I'm finally working with people that want to get the best product out the door without settling with "good enough." We are also constantly evolving our communication methods to reduce email clutter. I love not getting emails with vague or empty subject lines and getting a quick Slack message instead. It also eliminates the endless game of email tag. The CEO also uses our benefits package in a way that makes sense. Instead of just handing out bonuses, she works with HR to create tax-free contributions to help get us more money in the long run. The company also put a finance consultant on retainer so we can have any and all of our money questions answered, as a group or in a private chat, and at no cost to us — that's better than any ping pong table in my book!
Cons
As with any remote company, if you're not a self starter, it might be difficult to get into the swing of working remotely and keeping your motivation. If you are, though, you can use the flexibility to your advantage and leverage the great talent you're working with to propel yourself and your work forward.
