Pros

Great place to take on heaps of responsibility and make a name for yourself. The best advice I received during my 1 on 1 meetings was to stop asking for permission all the time. The company is growing really fast and so there is lots of room to grow. The vision of making space accessible is very motivating. As the company moves forward into production the pay and other benefits are increasing to a market rate. If you consider yourself a hard worker who can innovate on the fly - this is the place to be.

Cons

Standard growing pains for a startup. Everyone is growing and learning at different rates and this can create some chaos. For those who do not have strategies to handle stress, it can be overwhelming
