Pros
RigUp is a special company that is high growth with a relatively young management team. You will find that rare in Austin as most senior folks are older. What they lack in age, they make up for in smarts and grit. I only have positive things to say about their leadership. As an early employee, I have had the opportunity to interact closely with various layers of management. The CEO is both strategic and relentless as he's always thinking 6 steps ahead. The COO is meticulous and challenges assumptions. I believe they've set a tone of a rigorous work ethic, speed and thoughtfulness around making sure the business is always positioned for success. This attitude and culture trickles down to every facet of the company.
Cons
This is a company that is swinging for the fences and it was clear to me that they are building for the long run. You should expect to be stressed out and challenged. I left because of another job opportunity at a larger company with managerial potential that was not available at RigUp at the time. Otherwise I'd still be there.
