Pros

+ Collaborative culture where people believe that success of the company equates to personal success. This is rare for Bay Area companies. + Transparent culture + Rocket ship growth + Highly intelligent coworkers + A lot of opportunities to excel and grow your career + I feel excited to refer friends to work here, can't say that about all companies I've worked for

Cons

- Technical people tend to be valued more than non-technical in some teams - Complex internal processes

Pros

Probably one of the most significant platforms/products I've had the privilege of providing to the customers I work with in terms of business impact and value. There is an open and transparent culture from the top down. Transforming how a customer views and uses data is very rewarding. Very disruptive to the data space. Awesome in those aspects of the company.

Cons

Sometimes the worklife balance is ignored. There is a lot expected of every team. Not necessarily a con. It's overall a good thing but understand the internal requirements and the amount of time we're spending with customers can be overwhelming. We have to spend time with customers as we're transforming the way they're doing business and it takes time to take a customer from 0 to 100. You don't just buy some licensing. This is really a pro but internal stuff on top can grow into a con.

Pros

Obviously the tech is market leading and the management team locally and globally are exceptional. But the company actually cares about its team, everyone has a voice, transparency and openness are demonstrated at every turn.

Cons

Rapid growth in both revenue and staff numbers means this company is not for the faint hearted.
