Really well run company

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

-Excellent leadership, thoughtful, transparent, and deliberate -Growing fast - lots of interesting challenges and plenty of untapped business opportunities -My manager is excellent - cares about supporting and leveling up everyone -People work hard but the culture is one of "we're all on the same team"; no unnecessary pressure or breathing down necks -Really thoughtful expansion; hiring bar remains high, big emphasis on supporting remote employees

Cons

-Ruby -Because we deal with ppls money, any outside tech we use needs to go through a long security review process; often we end up building things ourselves that already exist as external products, because it's easier than getting them approved.

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Cons

- We're still trying to figure out where process would be helpful - Everyone is so humble and down-to-earth that people are sometimes not recognized for doing great work - Looks like work-life balance is still pretty dependent on what team you're on
