      Pros

      - Wide variety of work, complex problems to solve that we don't see in normal SaaS company - Some very knowledgeable SDEs - Focus on writing and getting designs/ideas fleshed out - sometimes feel pain but gives better results

      Cons

      - RTO - Unnecessarily complicated promo process - constant pressure of delivering and gathering projects/data points to show you are ready for next level

      Pros

      Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

      Cons

      You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
