- Awesome project pipeline
- I was mentored in all the technical skills I lacked
- I was given real responsibility from day one
- Tasks have been challenging and meaningful; working here is more than a job, it's a mission
- The founders' humility belies their accomplishments + ambition
- University of Oxford and ESA partnerships mean there are frequent opportunities to attend fascinating events, and meet brilliant people.
- "Flexible work hours" that are actually flexible (if you can get all your tasks done!)
Cons
- Small team and breadth of work required can make focused skill development difficult; my dev skills progression has been slower than hoped for (though rounded out by development of biz dev skills)
- Work follows you home and can mess with your sleep patterns
- No upfront equity when hiring
