Pros

good access to senior leadership, not a lot of unnecessary hoops and ladders to go through in order to get something done (very unlike my last, big company). teams are structured in a way that gives them a lot of autonomy/ability to move quickly on projects. the people are phenomenal - very humble, down to earth. ability to make a big impact on an even bigger userbase. the upside potential of our business model and the richness our data is unparalleled.

Cons

no gym, no 401k match - but if i wanted all the perks and benefits of the world, i'd go work for XYZ big company and have minimal impact and just coast until i retire.

Pros

WLB Remote work (which is slowly ending). Strong ICs

Cons

Poor leadership vision, strategy, and execution. Rebranding products that already exist as net new to chase a headline. Unclear career growth unless you are internally connected to “the right people”. Middle management that is there to boost their career / repackage IC ideas as their own with zero credit. RTO rollout was botched leading to senior sellers leaving. Lots of toxic positivity and virtue signaling
