Pros

- product and engineering lead software team that is dynamic and innovative - the reach and impact of this product is making a difference nationwide - the people are talented and inspiring, which makes the culture supportive and open. Everyone helps everyone learn. - everyone works remotely but can look forward to an annual in person company retreat - senior leadership are conscious about scaling efforts and needs - benefits get incrementally better every year

Cons

- company goals and expectations are ambitious which can become overwhelming, expect to hit the ground running when you start - company size doubling every year so retention of current employees feels swept under the rug - PTO and sick time are only 120 hours for the entire year - senior leadership micromanages at every level instead of allowing middle management to develop their teams internally - internal promotions can take nearly a year to negotiate and don’t expect any pay increases or bonuses outside of promotions
