Pros

- Merge has hired a truly outstanding team to date - all employees are highly intelligent, motivated, and kind. If you are a driven individual looking to join a hyper-growth start-up this is the kind of team you want to join! - Merge's founders are both brilliant and ego-less (the latter being what makes them truly stand out within the tech world and a pleasure to work with). They are eager to continue to learn and grow, take employees' recommendations to heart and are not afraid to admit mistakes. They have also fostered an incredible culture of humility, respect, recognition, and positivity - initiative is encouraged, and mistakes are fixed, not punished. - It is so exciting to work at an early-staged company that clearly has amazing product/market fit, as demonstrated by impressive early adoption and sales. Merge is truly growing at a hyper-growth pace and wins are announced daily

Cons

- The biggest con mainly revolves around typical early-staged start-up pains. In order to keep up with our growth, employees are having to wear many hats and end up context-switching a lot throughout the day. While this can be a little painful at times, it also really is a great learning opportunity, as you get to work on many different types of projects and have a broad impact on the company

Pros

I came to Merge from a software engineering role at a large tech company. In that role, I worked on internal-facing products with limited impact to customers. Most of my coworkers were fully-remote. I was eager for more opportunity and visibility - and decided that I wanted to join a startup. I joined Merge with hopes of accelerating my career. I wanted real experience working on the most important features of a company’s core product. I wanted to work in person alongside people who matched my energy and enthusiasm, and I wanted to truly understand what it takes to build a successful company. I wanted to work in an environment where good work is recognized and opportunity abounds. Two years later, Merge has been everything I hoped it would be. I have grown immensely both technically and professionally - in areas spanning from systems architecture to recruiting and public-speaking. I am consistently challenged and never bored. I am constantly in awe of my coworkers, many of whom I consider good friends. And I've gotten to witness up close what it takes to build a successful business. Joining Merge has been the best decision of my career.

Cons

Merge is not for everyone - if you are not comfortable working in-person and in a fast-paced, dynamic environment, it's probably not the right fit for you.
