Vantaggi
- Quick advancement, if you're good, people will notice and you'll get more responsibility
- Still young enough that you can elbow your way into handling something you think is interesting that isn't necessarily in your job description
- A lot of progress has been made in expanding the recruiting framework for technical hires, looks like that is about to pay a big dividend soon
- Company was able to raise a B round to fund this hiring expansion
- At a high level, money seems to be spent on people and tools versus gimmicks and cliché "startup" purchases like ten ping pong tables
Svantaggi
- Not everyone comes to work with the level of urgency they should have in a startup. Every new recruiting class has helped to dampen this presence, but it's still there to some extent. A couple people want to play startup vs. internalize how much of an impact they do (or don't) make
