Pros

-People are Great! (everyone is super nice especially when you are not involved in the upper management drama) -New leadership (No solid view on them), old leadership was bad new might be better think the CTO (basically the CEO) has a good vision and is calling all the shots. -allowed for a flexible remote nomad lifestyle, few weeks of the year you can work internationally with approval. -Benefits are okay PTO is nice (4weeks), plus $100 bi weekly food allowance, 4% 401k match on 100% salary, maternity and paternity (12,8 weeks) , insurance is good.

Cons

-Founder is clueless, you hear the founder/ceo talk and you're just shocked how this person stumbled into a multi Mil dollar business. No confidence in the founder, New CTO is calling all the shots. -Lots of competitors -New Leadership seems cut throat which is probably needed but watch out. -No sense of ownership at the company, they have no equity, profit sharing, no plans to go public nothing besides growing marketshare. -rolled back a a huge revamp in their holiday and sabatical program

Pros

* Remote Work LITERALLY THAT IS IT

Cons

* Everyone is out from themselves and will screw you over * Everyone lies and backstabs * Leadership gives you no feedback or constructive criticism- no career path made clear * Male employees get treated way better- HR and leadership ignore MULTIPLE complaints against men in higher positions including sexual harassment, favortism and are quick to get rid of female employees who have had no prior complaints DO NOT WORK FOR THIS COMPANY
