Pros
• Exposure to a diverse team that's spread out across the world. • A near-flat hierarchy that encourages people to connect with experienced peers. • Dynamic work that challenges the brain, and fun to be a part of -- there's so much to learn! • Fully remote (this may not be everyone's cup of tea, but with the processes and support system in place, the system here works wonderfully). • A transparent, supportive organization. • I joined at the height of the covid-19 pandemic, so we couldn't meet in person, but I know that there used to be regular team trips, and surely will have one as soon as it is safe to travel again.
Kontras
If you're looking for a comfortable place to hide, this isn't the place to be. My colleagues are super smart, efficient and high-performing. I have often felt like I wasn't contributing as well as my colleagues, and that felt stressful. Fortunately, my colleagues are also supportive and motivate me (and I try to reciprocate that as much as possible)
