Pros

- get to work with incredibly smart people - work life balance - employees are treated well, managers are caring - great product - high standards across the board. makes it a great place to work and easy to get stuff done - huge focus on growth and development; leaders invest in your career - unlimited PTO that you are actually encouraged to take (I take at least 4-5 weeks per year) - overall great benefits (Carrot fertility, mental health and personal coaching, affinity groups / ERGs, mentor programs, parental programs and benefits like backup care and parenting guidance, 5 months paid parental leave for both moms and dads)

Cons

- we are not the cheapest option for customers, which can lead to difficult conversations during renewals - some c-level managers can come off as out-of-touch - hypergrowth company means constant change, which can lead to burnout - no 401k match - if you're not in a main office, you miss out on a lot of benefits like free food, networking events, etc - D&I is hit or miss depending which org you're in
