Pros

Small teams, chill culture, beautiful women, good food, amazing data gurus, waking up everyday knowing you're helping solve the "traffic problem" is really inspirational

Cons

Very little equity. Not enough communication from CEO. Needs more meetings with high level management as the teams feel lost in terms of direction and day to day grudegework

Pros

It is a great atmosphere and a fantastic attitude. Everything here has the feel of a company that takes care of its people and wants people to enjoy it. The amenities are real and vibe is great. It is a company that preaches what it means and means what it preaches.

Cons

I have had a hard time adjusting to meeting people and breaking into the company socially. Since some of the teams are so silo'ed vertically it seems that its hard to interact with people around the company. Its also growing so fast that I feel like people might be slipping through the cracks.
