Pros

eShares is a place that hires for trajectory, and so inevitably, employees have space and support to grow and improve.

eShares does business differently than most places and manages people differently as well. The way it is done provides a lot of space to bypass bureaucracy and clutter and just build things that will propel the whole company forward.

As an engineer, I don't get specs and blinders to just go heads down and chomp through programming work. I am integrated with our customers, find their needs, and help build to support the business. It's a more holistic environment, and it allows for more meaningful engineering work.

Inclusivity is a priority, and it is constantly being worked towards.

Cons

It's a startup; there are always growing pains as the staff expands and corporate structures evolve. There is a lot going right, but sometimes there are hard situations and setups that still need to be improved.

Advice to Management

I highly respect my managers and legitimately don't have any problems with the way things are done. Any friction is a matter of tuning and not of fundamental issues.
