Pros

Salary is generally competitive and bonus on paper is good. Not too much red tape to tackle problems given the size of the company.

Cons

-The company has long outgrown the co-founders who are in over their heads. They would rather cherry pick metrics that sound great but aren't reflective of performance (e.g. non-GAAP profitability). They rely on metrics that are meant more as quick litmus tests but are used instead as internal KPI's beyond the intended usefulness of the metrics, obsessing over achieving arbitrary benchmarks vs delivering overall results. They hire executives with IPO/large company experience but then ignore their advice, hence the revolving cast of executives. -Bonus consistently doesn't pay out at 100%. -RSU's are worthless without an exit in sight -No 401K match -They chase feel good accolades, both with time and money, to make themselves look great (e.g. best workplace, best [insert exec title], social impact donations, etc) while neglecting to focus on advancing the company's operational excellence and products.
