Pros

- great work/life balance. be accountable for the work you sign up for; have flexibility in having a life outside of work. - leadership listens to everyone, the founders of the companies say hello to everyone in the hallways, and super approachable. - communication/alignment/tech continues to mature year after year. hasn't been a year that has gone by that i haven't seen noticeable growth in these key areas. - engineers opinions matter. we are building out things in a way that is scalable and maintainable. of course we hustle at times like every company, but we are given a lot of latitude in how create software and how we run our teams. - leadership supports career decisions. flexibility to switch roles within the company (within reason).

Cons

personally, i don't have any cons. this is the best job that i've had so far in my career. there are some "cons", but they are universal to any organization. i don't list them as cons because we are always working on them and improving on them. mostly revolving around communication, alignment, etc...

Pros

People are nice, the quality of work and the work life balance is great. Flexibility on work from home, work hours. Great culture and benefits. We have bagel monday's and sprint ending presentations and parties where everyone gathers and celebrates. Overall I walk in happy on Monday's, I think that matters most to me than anything else.

Cons

Small company means less room for growth.
