High pressure, fast-paced but great way to accelerate your career, top notch talent and technology
Pros
In 5 years I've grown 10 as a strategic leader. The scale of influence and value I was able to drive internally and for customers far exceeded any of my previous experience. The platform technology you work with is cutting edge and you're surrounded by top caliber, driven team members. Leadership do try to live by leadership principles and you can see results from the data-driven, straight forward approach to solving challenges.
Cons
Culture and work life balance are two tough areas. The culture is intense and can be cut-throat. It encourages you to promote yourself over your team, and the company will take every minute of your day if you don't set boundaries. There's little emphasis on retaining talen. The promotion process can be brutal and I've seen it discourage truly great leaders from wanting to stay at the company.
