Pros

- exciting business opportunity with tons of upside still ahead - very smart people to work with and learn from - good diversity of backgrounds and experience - no jerks, lots of respect and empathy for co-workers - opportunity to create and build something amazing - everyone has a hand in creating the business and helping determine its future - worklife balance is real here for everyone, including parents

Cons

Few to mention here... - too open? Sometimes conversations about small topics will take center stage in the internal news cycle which can be a distraction from the work at hand. - Life is great here and wouldn't trade it but it feels like we may be a bit over-entitled at times. It's not outrageous, but can be a little silly at times.
