Working with a great team of people who are generous with their talent and experience. Leadership is genuine, honest and committed to entrepreneurship.

24/7 job. If you have a cel phone or wifi, you are working. There are no days off.

Pros

Mission oriented company with an amazing vision and founding principles. Great colleagues in most cases and incredible opportunity to help founders who are really making a difference. A truly purpose-driven place when run well and with humanity and compassion.

Cons

Leadership upheaval, leadership without any care or consideration about actual people or employees or the culture. A total ship hitting an iceberg with an environment turned game theory-meets-Nash Equilibrium-meets- game politics. You knew you were being bled out before you were to be dismissed at any moment.
