A lot of upside if you're okay with a little chaos

Pros

- Great work/life balance and flexibility - Enthusiastic and authentic company culture - Room to grow professionally - Not a lot of ego - Genuine care for helping customers - Great location if you live in VA - Solid benefits package now that 401k matching, dependent care FSA, and parental leave exist - Going in the right direction from more of a sales-focused org to product first - Huge amount of recognition given to smart people having impact - Tons of opportunity to be involved and be taken seriously

Cons

- Expensive health insurance beyond free plan (which is great for entry-level people; not a legitimate option when you're older) - Definitely lower on the pay scale - Pace and rate of change are not for everybody (not a con for me, but it can be rough on people who need structure and consistency) - People have gotten fired and no one ever talks about it or announces it - There's a lot of "we want your opinion" but when you give it, HR gets defensive - Very white, very male c-suite

Truly one of the worst companies

Pros

Remote work was the only pro

Cons

Horrific hiring and firing practices. Complete disorganization and changing priorities daily (leading to catastrophic layoffs.) Toxic work environment. No balance of work among team members. Benefits were outrageously expensive.
