Pros

-Exciting, Moving, fast-paced. -The team is fantastic. Really genuine people where the ego is left at the door - O politics -My boss. I can genuinely say I have never worked for someone who is so supportive, hardworking and inspiring. She really leads by example. -The perfect balance between someone who can down manage as well as up manage. Very rare -I have worked for some cool companies but definitely the best I have worked in

Cons

We are growing so so quickly which I absolutely love and find this environment inspiring. However, If you are someone who wants a very corporate and processed environment and likes to hide behind layers of people, probably not the role or company for you.

great company - but it is getting more political

Pros

Very smart people, hard working and respectful. Strong leadership & good technology. Product management could be improved

Cons

Watch your back if you are not in favor with the right manager/leader. There are some very tight workforce groups that require you to be "in" with that group - or else you will be on the outside of decision making and inclusion does not happen. Overall they live the transparency vision internally that is being publicly sold to employers. As they the company gets bigger (more employees and more offices), it will get even more political.
