Pros
- no uptight corporate bull$#!t - remote working is welcome - still growing after over a decade
Cons
- they work very hard to pretend they're still a startup - the pay is way below market, even if they insist it's not - work/life balance in non-existent: they pretend work starts at 9 and ends at 5, but in effect you're expected to give more - ageist, non-inclusive tech-bro mentality (lots of inclusivity initiatives, but it's all whitewashing, greenwashing and pinkwashing - corporate culture borders on cultish - they have their own language and like to pretend it's a humanitarian mission, not a for-profit multi-billion-dollar corporation - there's no cushion to fall back on: you're only good for them while you're at your prime. As soon as you get sick or hit some personal roadblock your days are numbered and nobody will give you the time of day - end of the day, they'll exploit you to the bones and spit you out
