Pros

-The people are amazing; fun to work with, smart, and approachable -Great culture. Results oriented yet empathetic -The drivers of the business are very strong -Great benefits and work/life balance

Cons

The company is scaling quickly. This leads to uncertainty and messiness at times but it all comes from a good place. We're trying to build something for the long haul and balancing the long term vision with the short term priorities can be challenging at times.
