Pros

Friendly people, growing company, working on something that will make a difference in the world (connecting the un-connected, and the underserved, to the internet)

Cons

The company is going through growing pains and struggling to recruit (and struggling to even post jobs for) enough people to make the workload manageable for many of the employees.

Pros

Good work-life balance with flexible scheduling

Cons

Over the past several years, the company has lacked a clear long-term strategy, resulting in frequent reorganizations, shifting priorities, and multiple rounds of layoffs. Decision-making often feels reactive rather than strategic, creating uncertainty and making it difficult to execute long-term plans. Internal processes can also be overly complex, slowing down work and reducing efficiency.
