Pros

Fast-moving risk-taking engineering culture where we work hard but are constantly rewarded by experiencing the success of our efforts. The level of intelligence and the level of fun on our team amazes me every day.

Cons

Intensity, autonomy, winning ideas that come from anyone in the company regardless of seniority or tenure... Ingredients that make us successful, but certainly not for everyone.

Pros

I love being able to work around truly passionate people who are ready to change the world. The culture is great, free snacks and food is big plus. I had the opportunity to take ownership of projects within my first month

Cons

The hours are much longer than any other job I've worked in, but this is expected to change as we continue hiring more help
