Pros

-Cap Markets team is good, well run -HR team is great, good benefits for the stage of company -Remote

Cons

The company has a strong leadership team, but strategic direction at the executive level is a major weakness. The founder lacks the experience and vision needed to scale effectively, often making impulsive decisions with little justification. Leadership talent is underutilized, as valuable ideas are ignored or deprioritized. As the company grows post-Series A, it would greatly benefit from the board appointing a seasoned CEO with the expertise to lead a high-growth organization and set a clear strategic path.

Pros

The people that work there are great.

Cons

The CFO is an absolute toxic person. The CEO is nice but out of the loop. The team is siloed, and it's a purely Slack culture.
