Principal - Anonymous employee Founders Fund Employee Review

- Team of truly independent thinkers with unique backgrounds -- I don't just learn from my colleagues on a daily basis, I also enjoy spending time with them - Opportunity to work with brilliant founders tackling important problems in science and technology - Lack of bureaucracy - Culture that encourages free thought and respectful debate on a wide range issues

- Not a con for the team here, but it is a fast-paced, challenging, high intensity environment - The team is relatively small, so employees have a lot of autonomy (but also ample opportunities for collaboration) -- not a fit if you're someone that needs a lot of coaching or hand-holding

Tight knit team! Adaptable and hyper intelligent people everywhere you turn, and dedicated to great technology. Not a traditional VC in any shape. Competitive benefits and attention to personal wellness.

Some processes or communication can be very vague, but if you aren't afraid to speak up and ask, not a real con.
