Pros

Wonderful humans as colleagues; this can't be understated. Everyone is friendly without being insincere.

Elastic builds very exciting and infinitely useful products, so to be able to contribute a tiny bit to this ecosystem is super fulfilling.

Working from home and making your own hours means that work, for the most part, wraps around your life and not vice versa.

Cons

Working from home also often means not being able to switch off.

As we grow, it's also increasingly hard to stay on top of all developments. Almost all meetings are open to all as they mostly occur virtually; however, bigger-picture items get laid out without much notice.

Advice to Management

The company culture is fantastic. Just be vigilant that all product teams don't get siloed too much.
