Pros
- Visionary Founders - Hybrid ecommerce and music co. combining two of my main interests - Transparency around business strategy / roadmap / quarterly results - Industry-leading market positioning. No true competitors. We created this space and we're killing it! - Partnerships w/ musicians, labels, producers, tastemakers, plugin manufacturers - Smart, passionate co-workers - Laid-back, relaxed office environment - Free Splice accounts - In-office music studio ( just finished my first single!) - Access to the music industry ( regular office visits by legendary producers, DJ's, etc.) - Great parties / company events - Generous 401K match and stock options grants - Strong series B funding (We're on the radar of leading VC's)
Cons
- Growing pains, literal and figurative - Some blindspots in the org with regard to operations & executing on strategy - Decisions sometimes based on "gut" rather than data - Some hesitancy to embrace genres outside of EDM / Hip-hop
