Pros

The mission attracts some really wonderful colleagues with deep personal connections to the mission.

Cons

The culture stems from the CEO who is a toxic, manipulative bully. The entire exec team are his personal friends and willing to put up with his nonsense and at worst are often extensions of his terrible work habits. He is exactly the kind of person who would pay to get good glassdoor reviews from people. Evidence of how awful the place is: I was recently contacted by a group of recently laid-off colleagues who are considering a lawsuit against the company for workplace harrassment. Run away from this place.

Pros

The work you do is meaningful and impactful to the business. Processes are quick to be developed and implemented which is rewarding. Leadership is very involved in all aspects of the organization and open to thoughts and ideas from all employees. As a start up you develop skills in a range of areas and there is a lot of cross department teamwork which I enjoy.

Cons

Can be long hours to meet deadlines, but that is expected in a start up environment.
