Compensation is competitive and the company is poised for rapid growth.

Interview process was so long and communication was so poor that it almost certainly deters high-quality applicants. Absence of work-life balance. Toxic, self-important culture.

The work is very interesting, lots of cool problems to solve. The people are super smart and friendly - great work environment. The problems we solve help work on some of the most interesting problems in the world (healthcare, fraud etc.)

Cons

We're competing with the biggest tech companies for talent but we don't provide many of the benefits they do like 401k match.
