      Pros

      - It's surprising, but their tech is probably one of the cleanest and innovative I've come across. Everyone is very talented - Good career growth - Nice amenities and culture. - Diverse - Good hiring bar - Good work life balance - management is transparent. CEO is very active with everyone

      Cons

      - I left because it wasn't a product I enjoyed using personally. It appeals to specific kinds of people - apparently there were a lot of politics going on but I wasn't aware or affected by it - not sure where this company will go - co-founding team are still relatively inexperienced

      Not a lot of enthusiasm for the product

      Pros

      - Flexible PTO - Fun events like KnitCon, an internal conference where employees teach each other - I believe the product has huge potential - Folks are generally nice

      Cons

      - Many employees, particularly engineers, don't use the product at all and aren't passionate about it - Horrible on call; 100+ pages in a week, little interest from team and management in trying to improve the process - Interteam efforts end up being a game of hot potato, with no one taking initiative on ownership and essential work just not getting done
