Pros

There are some truly passionate people here who are dedicated, but most left

Cons

I am glad I left this place. After the departure of many senior staffs, the organization is now in disarray and many people are scrambling for the exit. Management has made it into a sweat shop. Since they are bleeding talent, they pretty much squeeze every living breath out of the remaining, making it modern slavery. There are many inexperienced people, this is their first or second job from another startup and they have no idea what experienced organization looks like. Stay away! Unless you're a nature born slave.

Pros

They try their best to not say no to anything. ( if that's good/bad you decide)

Cons

Work-life balance is not there. Managers call and text at all hours of the day, and night. Ask for you to work on weekends, etc. The leadership has shared that the CEO is only looking to re-coop his investors ( John Doerr) money, and then thats it. Also, micro-management by junior managers at its best!
