Remote-only gem

Pros

One of the best companies I've worked for. I'm working on a fantastic product, doing work I love, with a great team of smart, capable, friendly people. Being remote-only allows a tremendous focus on work-life balance, but is really only the start. The leadership goes beyond to explicitly share a vision for flexibility as seen in the publicly available handbook.

Cons

Joining a fully remote workforce can be daunting for some. Dealing with coworkers from all over the world can be challenging since different cultural norms and expectations will arise.

Pros

Work remotely anywhere in the world. Literally. And the company will hook you up with everything you need for your home office. The team is so nice. Like really, really friendly. Everyone. The company values aren't just written down to make the company sound good, but they're actually upheld and encouraged by upper management. Even (and especially) things like taking time off. The CEO and other execs actually listen to all employees, no matter their position or newness to the company. If it's a good idea, it gets heard and acted upon. This rarity is enhanced even further by the openness of the daily team call and other calls.

Cons

Working remotely is awesome, but... well, it can mean you'll be by yourself a lot if you're not careful. That can be good or bad depending on who you are and how you work.
