- down to earth leadership

- teams execute exceptionally well for a startup - like a Swiss watch
Cons
- large company feeling is inevitable: e.g., you can't just play hip-hop music loudly in the office, no annual trips to Vegas
- parking in Palo Alto is tough

We hear you! Thanks for the feedback. We can only grow and learn with your help.
Lots of opportunity for advancement, pay compensation, mentor opportunities, great work environment, diversity and equality.
Cons
notice of sick time usage for it to count as Excused Absence, the ability to trade shifts as all U.S. based workers work Monday thru Friday with the earliest shist starting at 8 am and the latest starting at 12 pm CST
Fast paced, plenty of room and opportunity to grow. Very good starting pay and ability to earn bonuses. Many remote work options. Strong culture and supportive leadership, with fun company events (like the Christmas party) that help people feel connected, even for the many remote employees.
Cons
The pre‑hire assessment is very strict and pass/fail. I’ve referred strong, experienced candidates who I know are good workers, but they did not pass the test and were not given the opportunity to move forward. It feels like the process may screen out some high‑potential talent who could otherwise thrive here.
