Pros

International company where everyone has a "roll up your sleeves and get it done" attitude Employees have a lot of autonomy Dutch culture of talking straight creates an open environment where feedback is encouraged and welcomed Flat hierarchy, no middle management with easy access to President, COO, and SVPs 2-3 business trips to Amsterdam each year Great work-life balance, taking time off is actually encouraged ...and most importantly- the product is fantastic!

Cons

The aforementioned flat structure leads to a lack of formally defined leadership positions, so those looking for a more traditional path of individual contributor --> manager --> director may not find what they're looking for here.
