Vantaggi
- The company is going after a huge and exciting market opportunity. Founders have a great vision for where the company is going and how we’ll get there. - High demand for our current access control products. End users talk about the technology in glowing terms. It’s magical. - The office has a really good vibe. No politics to speak of. People across teams eat lunch together daily. Music played in the office. No cliques. - Co-workers are smart, hard working, not political, and fun to be around after work. The company has frequent happy hours and we’re gearing up for our first company-wide offsite retreat in Napa. - Company leaders make thoughtful decisions. They frequently ask advice of insiders and outsiders (including veteran entrepreneurs) and think through all the possible impacts.
Svantaggi
Proxy is pretty typical of startups with big ambitions. The scope of what the company is trying to do is enormous and everyone has a lot of work (you will too). It’s not at all unusual to work nights/weekends. It’s a high pressure and intense environment and not for everyone.
