Pros

Where do I start....the team culture, they hire sound people! Everyone is so lovely & so helpful and very welcoming.The money and benefits - awesome. The food & coffee - Amazing. The office - such a calm and cool office vibe, a pleasure to come into everyday. Management - v experienced and offer great advice. The job - high expectations but they want you to succeed so support you in every way to win. You feel like you are a contributing factor to the success of the business. It really is a fantastic place to work.

Cons

Struggling with this one.... a bit more banter maybe?

Pros

-No winers or negativity persists on any team. Employees know to bring your true self but also fun and supportive self to work. Never felt like there is drama or negativity -Great management team who is there from beginning -Fastest growing business saas company -Managers are held to a high standard and held responsible for any over-time work of employees. Never seen this before. This is truly great and avoids burn-out on teams -On-boarding is world class -Get to work on slack without ever having to send e-mail. Such zen every day -Super perks

Cons

-Meals only 3/week and on odd schedules. Step 1 is to get lunches 3/week even if removing breakfast+dinner that is once/week since having lunch catered often is the true-time saver and productivity enhancer -No stock refreshes to date
