Vantaggi
Dgraph Labs has a high growth culture. The company and the team is ambitious and truly believed that smart people could get any job done well. The team was always pushed to take on challenging tasks and there was a lot of ownership and responsibility given. Years of experience did not matter, what mattered was the drive and outcome you would bring to an endeavor. Global teams also helped bring in different perspectives while discussing a problem at hand
Svantaggi
The pace of work was intense as expected in any startup. There is some amount of trial and error - but again that is expected at a startup where you are building something new. The timezone differences were so that one would be on calls later at night post dinner (but there was a lot of ownership of the schedule provided - so it is not as though you had to be stuck to your desk the whole day).
