Great place to work!
Great place to work!
The whole company is moving at a very fast pace. The whole eng team is on a single floor, and it's easy to get things done. Very open and friendly culture. Decent compensation with a considerable amount of stocks.
The tech stack has been growing organically in the past, which means you need to put some effort to be on top of everything. The Eng org is expanding crazily, so you must learn to embrace change. The workspace is small and a bit noisy. It'll get better once we have another floor.
It's a 15+ minute walk to BART or Caltrain, which is far enough to make you hate walking. No free parking.
Keep up the good work!
