Pros

The culture here is wild, in the most positive sense of the word. The company is legitimately interested in keeping their employees healthy and mentally stable, particularly during the pandemic. - Flexible ETO (emergency time off) during pandemic - Monthly days off for mental health during pandemic - People really seem to be interested in and care for one another - Comp is great (for me and my peers anyway) - Very limited drama and "team politics". People just want to see the problems solved as a team.

Cons

- There's an adage that "the easiest way to get Staff/Senior Staff is to get hired into it" - Promotions are very difficult to come by, and getting harder with time - I end up rolling my eyes a lot at how often people go on political tirades assuming everyone else agrees with them.
