Pros

Clear Vision and Goals, with a great execution strategy, and the smartest but also nicest people on the planet, this is a hard to come by combination. Great things are in store, for a company that nurtures its talent, takes good care of its people. and provide great opportunities and challenges to its people, that really keep them motivated and interested and to care about what they do.

Cons

This is a start up, with some of the teething problems of a start up - scrappy is good, but this may not be for everyone.

Pros

People are smart. Very much a “move fast and break things” culture which can be refreshing compared to bureaucracy-heavy corporate life. I don’t agree with their values (if they have any) but what they’re doing is unquestionably working - business outlook is strong.

Cons

Leadership will tell you there’s no ego or self-interest involved in their strategy - that is untrue. It’s an extremely heliocentric culture around the CEO. A lot of the work is based around what people they're guessing he’ll like, but there’s no alignment at the outset and something you worked on for weeks/months will be trashed after one look from him. Their mission is ostensibly about empowering agents but they are solving a problem that pretty much no one was complaining about before they started, and which just so happens to work highly in their favor in terms of market share. It’s just business but very disingenuous- don’t believe the hype that it’s altruistic somehow. Also the CEO loves to share his sob story about his single mother upbringing, but simultaneously enacts some of the most anti-parent policies you could think of.
