Vantaggi

• "change the world" company mission • challenging and interesting work • IPO potential (the main attraction for some) • base pay is decent • 2021 bonus was excellent • new CEO has improved company focus and is well connected

Svantaggi

• poor work/life balance. it's a grind • no real vacation policy (take what you "need", but many are still tethered) • barely standard benefits for a high tech company • no recurring stock option grants (expected to change later in 2022) • perpetually understaffed • consistently high employee turnover even at upper levels. people aren't even sticking around for what should be a really good bonus in 2022 • opportunity cost - good job opportunities are everywhere

Vantaggi

The technologies being developed are great, and the folks behind them even greater. People are professional yet it still has that startup feel. I don't feel there are any silos between different teams. Most of my colleagues are incredibly smart and cool people. Executive updates are open and thorough.

Svantaggi

Deadlines are too often pushed back. Executive updates look to be scheduled randomly. A few people don't follow basic engineering practices.
