Pros
Working at Umbel is never boring. You'll learn every single day if you just show up and engage. There is plenty of opportunity to make an impact in the future of the company since merging with MVP Index. There will be a new company born here in the next few months. Getting to be a part of that can be a rewarding experience if you've got pioneering spirit in your blood. The combination of the leadership team that is left and the new leadership team in place seems like a good one. They are getting their hands dirty in the business and that will only lead to good things. We have funding and runway again with the MVP Index merger that we needed in order to keep growth stable.
Cons
There are warts of course and probably the biggest here is the turnover among employees. Because of that, the company has a relatively young team with much of the more senior talent having left the building. To be expected in the world of tech startups in Austin I guess, but it's never good to see talent leaving. The benefits are some of the best you could find in Austin currently, but expect they will get cut back in an effort to be fiscally conservative.
