Pros: Strong ownership with lots of autonomy, moving very quickly in a super interesting space (forefront of AI!). Lots of very motivated and smart people.

Cons: Fast-moving often means stressful or not a 9-to-5. Expect evening and weekend work. In my opinion, it's well worth it for the pros, but it's not for everyone.

Pros: Fantastic product. Great business outlook. Strong ownership of your work. Generous compensation. Very smart and hard-working team. Good benefits like frequent offsites.

Cons: Nothing major, other than having to work harder than most other companies.

Pros: Great degree of ownership and flexibility, with very few barriers or red tape. I feel that I can solve really hard technical problems and have good links to the business and users to really see the impact my work is having. I'm given a great amount of flexibility with remote working and very few scheduled meetings. It's very unique to be working in a company with a strong research component, both to see cutting-edge releases but also to be able to work with tools/APIs literally no one else in the world has.

Cons: There is a high expectation to work hard, and engineers will frequently work evenings/weekends. Nobody will force you to, but the culture is certainly there to do this, mainly as everyone really cares about what they're working on and wants to see it succeed. As a startup, there are clearly pieces of infrastructure that are still to be set up/built. This is great at times as I can work on things from first principles and really understand how they work, though there are also times I miss the efficiency of knowing a system is already in place with owners that I can just use, as you would see at a larger company.
