Pros

Get to work on an amazing team ! Great culture where there's plenty of opportunity to communicate and collaborate across verticals and teams. Plus the office space is amazing, having cold brew on tap and beer in the fridges is a big plus

Cons

None ! Sometimes the work extends beyond a standard 40 hour week, but that is to be expected with increased responsibility, and the work is fun to complete.
