Pros: Great company! Distributed work! Work with very smart engineers, who are always ready to help. Management is open and approachable, and really cool people!

Cons: Distributed work can sometimes feel a little lonely. There may be more activities to bring engineers together.

Pros: Love how open and honest communication is. Great benefits and compensation. Everyone is positive, and 99% of people are A-Players. Working at Elastic, you are given a lot of responsibility, but can also trust your coworkers to accomplish anything. No one is hired here who needs hand-holding. Experimentation is highly encouraged here; no one says 'no' to new ideas. You're free to experiment with new innovations.

Cons: Travel is required since it's a remote company. I'm not always up for that, but in aggregate, it isn't too bad (I only need to fly every 2-3 months). Flat hierarchy can make understanding product direction tricky at times.

Pros: Remote working, flexible, and decent benefits.

Cons: Poorly coordinated teams, managers, and directors throw you under the bus.
