Pros

Co-workers are nice and remote work is convenient

Cons

Extreme micromanagement and constantly changing comp plan with outlandish goal expectations that change from month to month and aren’t shared until almost mid month. This along with regular shifting of accounts that make it impossible to build relationships, result in unstable pay and a stressful environment.

Pros

Working with some talented and smart people. Latest tech stack The mission and vision of the company The culture of the teams and inside the company is good

Cons

The only con would be since this is a startup you will have to put in lot of work. But I think it's good in the long term career prospects as you get to solve the some impactful problems.
