toxic positivity culture, strongest employees i've worked with either left on their own or were laid off. Good HR managers leave, the toxic ones get promoted.

Pros

Inspiring, fast-paced culture full of innovation Surrounded by incredibly smart and collaborative teammates Clear vision from leadership with meaningful work that aligns Supportive onboarding and ongoing development opportunities Feels like my voice and ideas actually matter here

Cons

Rapid growth can mean occasional ambiguity or shifting priorities (but nothing that isn’t solvable with good communication) Time zones across global teams can make scheduling tricky at times
