Pros

- Great benefits and competitive pay - Fun company trips every 6 months

Cons

After a couple of months it was clear the team lacked solid leadership and direction on projects. I hope by now there is more clear expectation setting on work output and better internal training on the products. If you were in with the core group then you were safe. If you weren't, well good luck to you. CEO wants so desperately to be a cool tech bro CEO and talks out of both sides of his mouth. Little to no transparency in messaging around company direction, layoffs, etc.

Pros

- We're winning the AI market (dozens and dozens of high profile AI companies), and is fun to sell to developers who have a real need for the product to scale rapidly - Land and expand usage model allows us to win quickly, with some companies blowing through their 12 mo contracted credits in 3 mo (good for us) - Plenty of opportunity to take ownership and make a real impact - Overall, it’s a place where you can do meaningful work, learn quickly, and be part of something that's taking off

Cons

- That said, like any fast-growing company, there’s still iteration happening around segmentation, pricing, and sales process - Eng is shipping so quickly there's always more to sell, but at different stages of readiness - Things can change quickly, which is great if you’re adaptable and a builder, but frustrating if you want to run an established old school playbook

Pros

- the people are what solidified my decision to join, super collaborative environment and clear expectations - remote first with onsite opportunities for face time with other teams -transparent leadership on how the business is doing and what's next

Cons

- very fast paced environment so might not be the best fit for someone who isn't used to it
