Pros

Culture is friendly. Multiple countries involved at this point so good for career. Work is fully remote with some perks.

Cons

Quality of workspace is inversely proportional to proximity to main leadership - clear gaps in professionalism once you get close. Too much surface mimicry vs deep thinking. Overall, the lack of standards increasingly makes you second-guess decisions. Despite PR growth, I can't recommend it if you have options. Most suitable for starting engineers as a stepping stone to build resume. For non-technicals, if motivator is upskilling - learning curve flattens fast.

Pros

It's a deep tech startup.

Cons

Culture of overpromising/underdelivering. Poor ops. The business model is inherently dependent on the company's capacity to deliver good enough outcomes at a significantly lower cost than the leaders (citrine or local solutions that are favored for reasons of data protection). CEO is problematic - acted irresponsibly, too much self-permission, belittled an employee when felt insecure, no shows to meetings with no justification, and generally speaking is mercurial and double faced. Professionalism is too often performative, and runs away from accountability by overusing arguments of being busy. I don't understand why this issue hasn't surfaced already. CTO is the smart one but doesn't want to run the company.
