Pros

Fully remote working, competitive salary, good working life balance, great colleagues, management is really good. You can get to work with some cool technologies and learn a lot. Diversity and Inclusion is an important part of the company culture. The company is growing and seems to have a great vision for the future and have some smart people working under Heather.

Cons

Not much budget these days for travel, events, swag as the company is focused on making a profit. Very rare that you get a bonus, and if you do, they aren't big bonuses like some companies give. The last few years there haven't been big salary increases yearly either.
