Pros

I made lifelong friends at Neo

Cons

Every day there's a bunch of group texts about who got laid of today. It's really hard to focus in an environment where layoffs aren't done in batches but are a daily occurrence. Every day there's a new desk that's been cleared out. I love a lot about Neo but this alone has ruined the experience. Everyone is either talking about quitting (which they never do after years of being here) or talking about the latest person to get laid off. Not a very positive environment. I want to conquer the role every day without worrying about whether or not people on my team will still be around tomorrow. Also, being between two far-away cities and both cities thinking the other city's teams are lazy is not healthy.

Pros

What we're doing here is truly innovative and is a pleasure to be a part of it. Building something that challenges the incumbents - I think there's no other team in Canada that could do it.

Cons

Benefits are not superb, there's also a lot of policies still being built as we mature.
