Pros
- Rapid growth - if you want to say you work for a company that is hypergrowing, TA is the one - Gaining fame/namesake in the market (for both tech and travel) - Relatively fast career progression and title/level changes (if you are favored by decision-makers) - Friendly and helpful recruiters and recruitment coordinators
Cons
- Slow and inexperienced HR (outside of recruiting). Benefits/immigration folks are not clear on what they're doing - No mental health support or insurance - Career growth based largely on favoritism and nepotism - Micromanaging leaders (managers and C-level execs alike) - Constant excuse of "we are a start-up, we'll work on it" when faced with problems or honest feedback - Rigid leaders and ideas in finance & legal that slows down work
