Pros

They pay higher than the market.

Cons

Things might get too political, I've seen people set up for a bad performance. It's the time when things switch from a merit-based culture to favoritism-based. Also, if you don't like being constantly paged, be careful to discuss that with the team - sometimes extremely unhealthy - like waking up 3 am several times per week.

Pros

I love being able to work around truly passionate people who are ready to change the world. The culture is great, free snacks and food is big plus. I had the opportunity to take ownership of projects within my first month

Cons

The hours are much longer than any other job I've worked in, but this is expected to change as we continue hiring more help
