Pros
Placed has the fortunate combination high-quality and interesting 1st party data paired with a ton of smart people. There is a strong science and engineering DNA in the company and the % of scientists is very high relative to other places I've worked. As a place to do data science, it's hard to beat. The accountability is very high and there are zero politics. The company has a strong and defensive position in the market and is enjoying a fantastic growth rate.
Cons
Not a show stopper, but I'd prefer to work on a mac instead of a linux ThinkPad. For a profitable start-up, it seems a little silly not to let folks choose which platform to work on.
