Pros
If you're reading this, it means you're considering a position at Rex. There are a few pros: if you are good enough, Rex will hire you even if you don't have direct industry experience. They do spend the time to vet people: ability, fit, etc.
Cons
Please please please read the other less than positive reviews, I would say they paint a fairly accurate situation. Things I wish I asked during the interview process: - what are projected financials for next year, what assumptions? - what are key metrics? - what is the funding situation like? THEN go back and evaluate how the company has performed on a continual basis. Other considerations: - If you're in a good spot right now, push for more pay. Assume equity will be worth NOTHING (you get a dismal amount of equity given how early stage the companies are at, but the base could be sufficient, risk vs reward) - You might get more responsibilities, but it's far more bureaucracy than you'd expect from a 'startup'. - Be sure you have a contingency plan if things go south (and they will). Can you go back to your old company? Can you do something else? Do you have savings to dip into?
