Pros

- Cultural values are practical and solution oriented - Everyone is encouraged to be aggressive - Hands off environment where no one tells you what to work on. You tell a story of why your work is impactful, and whoever delivers most impact rises.

Cons

- Need a better reward policies to make sure employees are also focused on long-term impact. - If you're not mature enough, do not join.

Pros

I love being able to work around truly passionate people who are ready to change the world. The culture is great, free snacks and food is big plus. I had the opportunity to take ownership of projects within my first month

Cons

The hours are much longer than any other job I've worked in, but this is expected to change as we continue hiring more help
