Pros
Cool technology with great potential
Cons
I would advise caution due to volatile leadership. I accepted an offer in November for a position to begin after I finished grad school, just after the new year. Days before Christmas, I found out that the site I was to work at—which had been opened six months prior—was going to be closed and the whole team let go. Thus, even though my start date was after the site closure, my offer was rescinded just before I was to begin with no help or compensation. This was especially difficult because I had turned down other offers for this one and was now looking for work over the holidays, when very few jobs are posting. The company is young and beholden to investors with a very aggressive window for their return on investment, so the decision making at the top is quite turbulent. In my brief time, I’ve seen a few things get jerked back and forth more than would make you comfortable, moreso than the typical start up.
