Pros

Company is amazing- intelligent employees, ambitious goals, passion and execution are unmatched. Can't believe how quick they're moving. Refusal to accept mediocrity.

Cons

Intensity of work and aggressive culture- for great reasons and with good results, but you'll have to self-moderate to keep yourself from burning out.

Business Outlook

Pros

The office culture is super positive. People are WAY nicer than I thought they would be before I worked here. Everyone is positive and supportive. Compensation is largely based on the growth of the company continuing, so the stock options are where I expect a big payout, but the salary is competitive with startups in SF.

Cons

Perks could be better. Since I am periodically on-call, I'd like it if my cell phone was covered.
