Pros

The people are really top notch - I learn something every single day from my coworkers and am never afraid to ask for help. We have huge challenges and problems to solve but still have great growth and advancement opportunities. The work atmosphere is fun without being goofy. Also a strong respect for work-life balance despite the start-up atmosphere. Everyone works hard and pulls long hours when they need to, but we aren't in a constant state of emergency and there's no face-time requirement. Really entrepreneurial.

Cons

Lots of growth-stage issues - communication issues, occasional inefficiency, unclear responsibilities. However this is part of working at a start-up, especially in this stage. Overall I think we're doing great.

Pros

WLB Remote work (which is slowly ending). Strong ICs

Cons

Poor leadership vision, strategy, and execution. Rebranding products that already exist as net new to chase a headline. Unclear career growth unless you are internally connected to “the right people”. Middle management that is there to boost their career / repackage IC ideas as their own with zero credit. RTO rollout was botched leading to senior sellers leaving. Lots of toxic positivity and virtue signaling
