Pros

- No micromanagement, plenty of trust and autonomy - Remote-first company - Clear company goals that are easy to get behind - Cross-department collaboration with real impact - Supportive, friendly team culture

Cons

- Fast pace can sometimes feel a bit hectic and requires an ad-hoc mindset - Being fully remote means communication across departments needs to be especially clear and coordinated, especially when many moving parts are involved - Processes are still evolving as the company grows - Health insurance premiums keep rising yearly, and the 401K match could be more competitive
