Pros

Great environment and team members. Challenging problems to solve, and you get to own the entire end-to-end chain. Some people see this as a burden; I see it as valuable experience. Close to the city makes it very easy to access people and places. Work on problems that need to scale.

Cons

Can be a little disorganized at times due to the sheer growth of the company, but I think they are doing a good enough job considering.

Advice to Management

Keep the innovation flowing, as the challenge inherent in interesting problems is a good lure for bright people.
