Pros

Not a place for slackers. Important, relevant and meaningful work. Data and metrics driven. If you like to solve problems and take ownership of work then this is the place for you. Pays well. Good benefits and 401k selection. WFH is awesome. Ability to work 4 weeks out of the year in different places is cool.

Cons

401k match could be higher. No vacation time in first year. Must be earned. Not deal breakers though.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
