Pros

Flexibility, great talent, opportunity to grow and competitive market.

Cons

Its' maturity have grown to a corporation level. It's more stable than ever, but in cost of application complexity and bigger codebase due to the intense amount of features being introduced. It goes according to the plan of a single application for the whole lifecycle, but I fear it reaches a point that it just does too much.

Pros

- biggest all-remote company, doesn't just do remote, but does remote well - you feel connected to the entire company - everything (almost) is public! There is a handbook that everyone contributes to that has all the information you need. I was blown away by the transparency - even before joining I could look up anything about how the company operates. - truly lives by the values set and there is a lot of credit / thanks going around praising team members exhibiting them - amazing people all around - great personalities - very competitive compensation - amazing time-off policy (best policy I ever encountered) you truly have the freedom to define your life & schedule - time for self-actualization - manager will actually hunt you down if sees you burning out - great freedom & financial support to create your dream home workstation - very inclusive! found a group for everything, diversity is respected - grand potential for career development - gosh, there are a lot of good things - I'm afraid I'm forgetting stuff

Cons

- if you haven't worked remotely before beware of the trap of working all day, also set up needs to be good and distraction-free
