Pros
It's been an incredible experience to work for Hallow. I've always worked at places whose mission I believed in, but what sets Hallow apart is the amazing team they've built. You can like your title or your company mission, but if you don't have a good manager or good colleagues, it can be rough. No place is perfect and start-up life can be grinding, but I truly enjoy the people and culture! I think the habits they've built of celebrating wins, public gratitude and radical feedback also contributes to surfacing the best in everyone. It becomes less about striving for recognition via promotions and more about bettering yourself and others every day in service of the shared mission. I also just appreciate the willingness for Hallow to invest in technology and benefits that make work and life easier. They're not afraid to invest in the business and their talent.
Cons
It's definitely a demanding job! It's a lean team so we all work hard and there are long hours. That said, people are very understanding if you have strict blocks on your calendar for family commitments or health needs, etc...
