Pros

The culture is both refreshing and rewarding to anyone who has spent time in a "corporate" work environment. Great colleagues in terms of talent and personality. Everybody pushes each other to do their best work.

Cons

Culture takes some getting used to, so the first few months can be a little jarring. Lean organization means there's always a lot to take on which can get overwhelming if not managed properly.
