Pros

+ Challenging, interesting and dynamic work + Founders and colleagues that really care about the impact we're having—it's incredibly fulfilling to see that your effort translates to real outcomes for students (and mentors) + A team that is smart, hard-working, and intellectually curious = a great environment to learn and challenge yourself + People bring their authentic selves to work here. We are a super diverse group of ethnic backgrounds, social styles, interests. + International travel! We have a team offsite that brings together the Bangalore and SF office every year. I've been to 7 different countries with many people on the team which has been great.

Cons

We've grown rapidly this year and communication/information flows haven't always been perfect. This is my first time at a startup this size so I'm not sure how normal this is, but it can be a challenge.
