Pros

- Great exposure to new age technology - Offices are in good locations - Good way to build your global presence - Excellent resume builder and a way to advance your career

Cons

- No direction from senior leadership - No collaboration - Each person and department work in a silo - I spend most of my time tracking people and information down - No HR - Pay is below industry average - I find out about details that affect my team off hand - Sometimes people that you schedule meetings with just don't show up - Senior leadership is too busy building their personal brand rather then working to build up the company or team

Pros

Shaping a still new born tech industry Working remotely from home Some independence in what you do Travel around the world (if you're part of a particular groups that said, see below)

Cons

No management A lot of secret projects going on that very few have a clue about A lot of internal conflicts and politics due to the lack of management and nobody seems to care about it even though it's killing little by little the company. As previously mentioned here by others and I couldn't have said it better if you are part of some clique/group your opinion will be of a high value otherwise don't even try. Typically if you're not part of this clique and if you don't agree with some decisions and you say it a bit too loud be ready to pack your stuff. Brand partners (just mere salesmen) are still babies having just finished school act like they run the company. Even though it's a (4 years old) startup so instability is quite normal, firing off so many people in so many offices throughout the world at the same time even if they were competent and been here for a long time says a lot about how a company treat its members.
