      Pros

      I see a lot of 1 star reviews, I think it's really not that bad if you know what you're getting into: -Lots of smart, hardworking people -AI product with good business model, steady revenue -Decent pay and benefits, bonuses on top for good performance

      Cons

      -Long hours, fast and chaotic iteration. Unsurprisingly for a startup the business needs to take a lot of shots to see what sticks, quality isn't always top of mind -Lack of transparency, a lot of employees don't have visibility into things like how compensation changes work, that there is a bonus structure etc -Business generally feels pretty top down, good for moving fast and being decisive, but can leave employees to feeling unheard

      Pros

      - Free lunch and dinner if you stay late I guess

      Cons

      - Long hours - Unrealistic expectations (a project that was projected to take six months by a team of competent engineers was rammed through in 2 months by 2 engineers) - PRs are often approved by people who don't understand what the PRs are actually doing, so things break, a lot - Long hours are expected, I was often pulling 12-hour shifts - Toxic culture - Whole bunch of other stuff, go there at your own risk - Company makes AI slop

      Don't trust the positive reviews - mgmt has employees write

      Pros

      401k match is pretty great, not all startups offer

      Cons

      Don't trust the positive reviews - management asks the employees to write them. The culture is intense and toxic. Management is very fickle and does not have a clear vision. Management does not care at all about people or growth.
