      Great Company!

      Pros

      Remote work that does not lose the communication and interaction. Great culture. Everyone's helpful and supportive.

      Cons

      Timezone difference if you're in the APAC region can be a bit challenging but it's a minor thing. The company's doing its best to remedy this issue.

      Awesome culture, organization and product

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Everyone is extremely helpful and honest, transparency is like I've never seen before, everything about the company is documented and in the open handbook, great work/life balance where people respect each other's time and overall a really great environment. The interview process might take a bit longer but in my experience, I had updates and knew the details at all steps, plus everything about the interview process is also documented so I could read by myself. All the general struggles in remote are thought of and mitigated or alleviated: coffee calls and daily "breakout groups" calls for the social interactions that you may miss in a remote environment, asynchronous communication and the "document everything" mindset for working across multiple timezones and many others.

      Cons

      None so far! (read the last line above)

      Pros

      It's a pleasure to work with both talented and helpful colleagues. Remote is in the DNA of the company and makes it super efficient. Last but not least, CEO has a real vision.

      Cons

      Company is growing fast. Not possible to get a contract from some countries.
