Pros

Great people in non-executive roles, especially ICs. Really cool product. Lots of flexibility (ie. remote, PTO, working hours).

Cons

Unfortunately, Glowforge has gone downhill and there is hardly any hope for redemption. The business plan is flawed, executives don't listen to what their people are saying, you get whiplashed around on different priorities and projects, it's chaotic, no one takes responsibility, and worst of all they expect the world of you but you aren't treated with respect. Don't believe the 'hype', 'greenwashing', 'buzzwords' or whatever seems appealing about joining this company.... you'll be more stressed than what it's worth for what you get paid.
