Great people to work with - they are friendly and you can learn a lot from them. Good incentives to work hard. Solid technology and infrastructure to work with. A lot of freedom in your daily work. Competitive environment.

Cons

You'll have to learn to manage your time very well. Not as much cooperation as you might see at other places.

Pros

Opportunity to work with extremely bright and driven colleagues. Strong emphasis on technology and data-driven decision-making. Competitive compensation packages and great office perks in the Austin tech hub.

Cons

The workload can be intense with high expectations for delivery. The proprietary nature of the work means using many in-house tools rather than industry-standard open source. Can feel siloed depending on which specific project or team you are assigned to.
