Brex

• Great pay
• Amazing coworkers. Everyone has a strong work ethic and is conscientious. The codebase shows that there's a lot of care towards doing a good job. I feel comfortable asking any person about anything any time, and they go out of their way to help me.
• Employees are empowered to take initiative and do what's best for the company. There's not a lot of top-down management. Many decisions are made bottom-up.
• Amazing cultural values, and every person across every department expresses them in their work.
• An underrated part of Brex is the speakers they invite to talk at company events. We've had investors and university professors give talks on diversity and inclusion and industry topics.

These aren't really cons, but more like side-effects of being in a hypergrowth company, and things to be aware of before joining:

• Fast-paced work environment, where it affects work-life balance. If you want to stand out, you would need to put in extra hours.
• Engineering processes and standards change every month. Not necessarily a bad thing because it means that people are eager to improve processes, but this means that you will need to put in effort to be up-to-date and participating in standards meetings to create the workplace you want to work in.

Many of the engineering managers have been here for less than a year, so I feel like they're still getting into a groove with how the company operates and finding ways to improve processes here. So far, it's been a good experience when I work with management. Cos, the CTO, and Edwin, the Dir of Eng, are amazing. Their visions generally resonate well with the engineering department. Keep up the good work.
