Pros

a great place for passionate people. The culture is very open and transparent. As an engineer the whole code line is open for you, and you can work on pretty much anything you want to make an impact on. It's a very gratifying experience as you can make changes and see it touch peoples lives almost every day.

Cons

with insane growth comes a lot of side effects, especially around lots of work usually ending up on your plate. There is a struggle on work-life balance, but we're getting good at this. But it's a good problem to have, considering it's a side effect of amazing growth.

Pros

You own your product. That makes you put your time in it voluntarily. Opportunities for career development in a fast growing company. Food is good. Kitchen is good. Uber credit is good.

Cons

Dinner is too late. 8:15pm? It's not good for your body. I don't see much cons.

Pros

I get to work with the smartest people I've ever worked with to build a product that I've used and loved since it first launched. And I get to help bring this great product to new markets, giving consumers and job seekers an additional choice. Here are 3 things besides the product and our mission that make me want to work harder 1) Employees are given a lot of flexibility and trust. I'm not encumbered by a lot of process. I get to write code and deploy it that day. 2) The company is very open internally. I feel like I have a very good idea of what we're doing and what our plans are. 3) Our CEO. TK might be our hardest worker. He's smart and principled and very candid at our weekly company-wide TK Q&A. It's great having a leader you really believe in

Cons

The only con I can come up with is how fast we're growing internally. I have to spend a lot of time interviewing candidates
