Pros

- Dynamic Leadership - Company Culture - Incredible Product

Cons

Like most companies at an inflection point, the work load can get excessive at times. As long as you understand this (and understand that equity participation is a direct anticipation of this), it's not necessarily a "con".

Pros

I have come from other companies where people just want to be left alone and keep to themselves. Here is the total opposite (in the best way possible). Everyone is extremely helpful. Will go out of their way to help you out, regardless if you are in a different department. Great Office perks and office settings. Nick is a very approachable person, loves to know how you've been and what's going on. Any cools movies? How was your weekend? Other CEOs just pass you and do not acknowledge your presence.

Cons

Keep doing a great job!!!

Glad to hear that your experience has been positive. I agree with your point about Nick being very approachable. A sure-fire conversation starter with Nick is, "what kind of ice cream do you like"? Hint: he is an ice cream fanatic!

Pros

Incredible management team (led by Nick) and category defining company.

Cons

There are a couple of major offices which are roughly siloed by function. Engineering is in Bangalore, Support is in St. Louis, most of the CSMs and management are in the Bay Area. This makes cross-department collaboration tougher than just walking across the hall.

Excellent input. To some extent, the geographic dispersion is a reality - and provides some big benefits for us in terms of being able to work with people anywhere (particularly work-from-home). But we need to continue to find more ways to bring folks together across offices.
