Canary is an inspiring place to work

Pros

Canary's small team of experienced leaders have built an environment where collaboration happens naturally every day. Canary's product is completely disruptive and the idea of toppling security giants like ADT and Brinks with a novel all-in-one solution makes work a lot of fun. The mission of protecting people who haven't had access to security in the past inspires me, and I wake up every morning excited about work. We've been covered in almost every press outlet, and we're attracting top talent from places like IDEO.

Cons

As with any startup, there's long hours and a lot on our plates to launch the product in May. I feel like we're on the right path though.
