Pros

Great people to work with and exciting projects to work on. I have mostly everything I need to do my job well and my team supports a true work/life balance. It's a fantastic culture and fun people are everywhere. The pay is fair and benefits are amazing. The office space is great. I feel that C-level care about people on a personal level and that really trickles down to lower rungs of the ladder, which aren't very far given a very flat structure. In most departments, there's only one level between you and the CEO. In fact, the CEO doesn't even have an office. He works from various desks around the house, or a pod, and is very approachable and friendly. And he even remembers people's names, which may not mean much to many people, but sure stood out to me. All the upper management team is approachable, in fact, and quite funny.

Cons

Things can change really quickly which can cause a ripple effect through the teams. I feel that collaboration has really been encouraged in many ways but there seems to be a growing number of instances where decisions are being made without input from the people doing the work. This concerns me some, but is likely still mostly in a benign state, I think. Also, if you work remotely or in the Portland office, it can feel a bit disconnected at times, but is the nature of remote work, I suppose.
