The teenage phase is rough

Pros

Incredibly smart and kind folks. Free food, if you're into that kind of thing. Definitely a fun product and hard problems to solve.

Cons

Still young minded, but no longer a young company. They need to get out of the teenage phase asap and start acting like a bit company. With that said, their culture couldn't sustain a fast move in to that, so it's a fine line. One that I hope they breach. Depending on your role, work/life balance isn't a thing, but it can be if you view it as just a job.
