Pros

Product, CEO, culture, environment. You have to understand that working at a 'start up' is nothing but opportunity. Everyone has a chance to rise as a leader through their actions and ideas. We're backed by international stability and a very accessible CEO. This company cares about its people and its customers. I plan to make this my last job by staying on the edge of innovation and coming up with better ways. Leadership is transparent, office space is cool, great compensation. Often you are left to figure things out on your own which I like but it's not for everyone!

Cons

Need some stronger leadership in some areas. Unfortunate that there are a few bad seeds with bad attitudes and intentions. This is in CX, ops and sales. Some people taking advantage of freedoms and perks. Growing pains hopefully temporary. Looks like 2015 benefits are better. It would be nice to know what other departments are working on.
