Pros

Strong goal setting process and fast decision making means teams are able to move quickly. We’re doing more and more to unlock the unique aspects of our 3-sided marketplace, creating unique ways for employers, students, and career centers to work together. The team focuses on deep understanding of our customers and creative ways to engage each audience. The team is warm, smart, driven, mission-focused, and hungry. Such great people!

Cons

High intensity environment is not for everyone. Things move quickly and there’s a lot of cross-functional coordination required to make good decisions. Desire to collaborate and deal with complexity is important to thrive here.

Cons

- Later startup going through some growth and changes, so not for everyone (lots of hiring too but scaling has been done pretty thoughtfully thus far) - 401k but no match
