Pros

- We don't build buildings fast enough, and that's a problem. Speeding up permits helps companies build buildings faster at lower cost, which ultimately means lower costs and more choices for everyone. - Everyone at Pulley is great to work with. Really feels great to collaborate with everyone here. - High bar for technical talent. Everyone is smart and capable and someone you can learn from. - Excellent work-life balance for a startup. Never feel pressured to put in the hours as long or skip vacation or work sick. Everyone works efficiently to ship a lot of great code.

Cons

- Occasionally there are days with no dogs in the office 😢 - Permits are kinda confusing (thankfully some people understand them and help us out!) - FOMO: too many of us to sit with everyone at lunch

Pros

* Incredibly kind, thoughtful and smart team. No "Sunday Scaries". It really is a joy to get to work with this caliber of people and I honestly love going to work and the positive energy. * Pulley is making a *real* impact for our customers. We really are changing the way our customers permit and transforming their working lives. * Great trajectory. Company continues to crush and the speed of product development is truly remarkable.

Cons

I'll call it more a "challenge" than "con", but the truth is with any fast growing company change, is fast and often. You have to embrace it and love it. Personally, it's what I was looking for and love working at a place that doesn't have a ton of operational/tech debt where you can't quickly improve. In the era of Claude and other AI tools, that's even more important imo and happy to be here.

Pros

Access to founders and positivity of everyone.

Cons

Extremely slim TAM. Inability to raise another round of funding beyond Series A but keeps hiring. Sales team is a revolving door. Disingenuous founders as well. Constantly worrying about hurting people's feelings because of how overly soft everyone here is.
