Pros

Company and team leads really take care of work-life balance. For example, they frequently suggest taking days off, and they allow working in hours I want rather than US or EU timezones like many other remote companies. Truly remote company, I would say. Colleagues are friendly and there are many internal groups to support or entertain you. 3-month sabbatical every 5 years, unlimited vacation days, 6-month parental leave are all great perks I really appreciate.

Cons

No stockings or options. No year-end bonus. But instead, they have an option to invest in the company by my own money.

Pros

Thorough and thoughtful onboarding process. Super supportive coworkers. The vast amount of resources to learn is second to none. Leads and mentors proactively check in and offer support constantly. Diversity and inclusion is amazing.

Cons

I do not have any cons at this time.
