Svantaggi
The cons that I see are very common for high growth startups... Tackling too many things at once or growing headcount without adequate purpose. However, I have seen both of these get better over time. The company is full of well-intentioned folks, with almost no ass-holes. This is generally fantastic, but one side effect is that we could use more constructive conflict and disagreement.
