Good technology Strong market opportunity Fast moving

Green CEO with a lack of leadership experience. Not a good company culture, lunch is provided occasionally, but everyone seems sad to be there. Employee relations leave a lot to be desired

Pros

Super-friendly and warm people all around you to work with. Highly collaborative and cross-functional work culture. We have equal amounts of work and fun and the whole team often goes out for fun activities. The work is game-changing and challenging and requires a lot of expertise. Everyone here is a subject matter expert in what they do. In terms of Salary, I was compensated more than enough!

Cons

Not Any that I can think of!

Pros

- great location (across from TD Garden) - one of few companies espousing the remote work paradigm - great working space - benefits on-par with industry - compelling tech story, using tiny polarizers - great array of snacks and good catering

Cons

- management is essentially a Harvard bro-club - management doesn't know if it's a fabless company, or a SW company - management keeps switching focus on their primary IP; suffer from "shiny bauble" syndrome. - look at Crunchbase for their most recent funding efforts...do the math on their runway when you consider them. - they seem to have a HIGH burn rate for what they're offering, and renting prime R/E. - the pricey talent they're hiring is primarily sidelined; a very small number of employees are doing the "heavy-lifting".
