Vantaggi
One of the key factors that drew me to apply for this company was their core values, and as part of the team for several months I am glad to say that we truly lived them - innovation, flexibility, and people orientation. The culture was amazing because everyone had genuine passion to help improve people's lives with their skills and talents. Though the experience was fully remote, I felt constantly supported and made genuine connections with everyone on the team through our frequent "happy hour" hangouts and coffee chats. As a relatively inexperienced product design intern I'm really thankful for the autonomy I had, I learned a ton while contributing to product vision and driving impactful design decisions.
Svantaggi
Remote work has its inevitable down-sides and there are natural constraints and limitations (budget/time/resources) that come with a new startup.
