Pros

- An incredible mission - True innovation in science and clinical care. It is amazing to watch the very nature of healthcare delivery, care and science change. I genuinely believe that the way healthcare is delivered for chronic conditions in the future will be defined by the work that Virta is doing today. - A CEO and Senior Management Team that is very together and laser focused on catalyzing a true revolution in healthcare - True meritocracy. Incredible Room for personal growth and empowerment. I was given three promotions in three years due to performance.

Cons

- People are spread a bit thin and have to take responsibility in areas that they may not have previous experience in. That being said, I found that to be a tremendous personal growth opportunity.

Pros

- The mission of Virta is to reverse Type 2 Diabetes in millions of people. T2D affects ~30 million in the US alone. Right now, there is no treatment for diabetes other than constant (and increasing) medication and bariatric surgery. At Virta, we're actually treating diabetes AND reducing or removing medication - Our senior leadership is incredibly experienced and (over)qualified for a startup of our size. They're also really good about delegating responsibility and empowering employees with the ability to make decisions - Everyone at the company is extremely mission-driven and they believe in the cause. This drive has really trickled down to every aspect of our culture. It's a very collaborative and transparent environment. - Great work/life balance - Well-funded. We keep track of our spending and our hiring, but don't have to worry too much about who will pay to keep the lights on - Last but not least, our work is literally saving people's lives. How many startups can say that?

Cons

- I wish we could be helping even more people, faster - There's really not much else to say, this has been the most fulfilling job I've ever had
