Pros

- Company is based around a solid idea that isn’t being addressed anywhere else in the market (rewarding rent payments). - Really smart and driven people. - Solid comp and benefits.

Cons

- Leadership is scatterbrained and non-existent in some regards. Priorities are constantly shifting and that often isn’t discussed or communicated to key stakeholders until a decision has already been made by the executive team. - In office is essentially required 5 days/week. While this isn’t inherently a problem, a lack of dedicated work space, meeting rooms, and a cramped environment makes it difficult to focus and get work done. - Feedback loops don’t really exist unless you explicitly seek them out, making it difficult to know where your performance stands relative to expectations. - Much of the culture is driven by the whims of a CEO that can best be described as a megalomaniac and micromanager. - This is not a standard 9 to 5 gig and requires constant monitoring of slack and email during evenings and weekends to ensure you stay up to speed.

Pros

Great health insurance and the office coffee situation was decent, which honestly is the absolute bare minimum but still one of the few tolerable things here.

Cons

- The processes here are completely nonexistent. - You will spend your first month desperately trying to figure out how anything actually works because nobody documented anything and every person gives a completely different version of the same procedure, which becomes infuriating fast. - There is no standard workflow for anything, so you constantly waste time reinventing everything or asking five different people the same question and getting five completely different answers. - Meetings happen just to repeat the same useless conversations from previous meetings while nothing actually improves. - Things constantly fall through because there is no real tracking system at all. It is just endless emails flying everywhere until something important disappears. - By the end, I was completely exhausted trying to compensate for the total lack of any real organizational structure.
