Pros
Joining Tesorio in the thick of the pandemic was and continues to be a fantastic experience. I've been a remote employee for a few companies over the years, but Tesorio is the first that embraces and leans into its remote culture. Since everyone is (and will continue to be) remote, everyone understands the rules of engagement. Meetings are efficient, time is carved out to meet and connect 1:1 with random colleagues, and there are bi-weekly virtual games, happy hours, and guest speakers. Speaking of culture, Tesorio is truly multi-cultural with employees scattered across the U.S. as well as many LATAM countries. Oh, and one of the cool benefits, when you're hired, is a stipend to pimp out your home office set-up.
Cons
Startups aren't for everybody. We move quickly, fail fast, iterate, and improve. Working at Tesorio requires flexibility in your scope of work and. you need to be comfortable with ambiguity. Company-wide meetings lack engagement — I don't know if that is a result of people not wanting to ask questions in a big group Zoom, or disinterest, or that communications are so crystal clear.
