      Pros

      + Great benefits. + Top of market compensation. + Intelligent, passionate, mostly friendly. + Great food options.

      Cons

      - Work/Life balance is non-existent - Pressure to interview making it impossible to focus on your day to day - We are now a product company so intense pressure to ship consumer facing products instead of focusing on research - Constant feeling of being understaffed, performance review isn't very elaborate - Leadership is too inexperienced and doesn't seem up to the task to address growing pains in the ways more experienced leaders would. - We seem to be straying away from our mission in order to drive revenue. - Confusing equity options. - Lack of accountability from the top down. - Lack of diversity, not just race but education and background and it feels like most of the recent hires come from Stripe, Meta, or Google.
