Pros: Context: I work on editor-related features (frontend). * Our customers really like us. Many use the tool multiple hours a day. Features we ship are immediately noticed and appreciated, as it directly improves their productivity. * There are enough low-hanging fruits that having impact isn't even a question. * There are plenty of technical challenges. The most requested features are all pretty involved and require solving problems from first principles. * Coworkers are consistently strong and thoughtful in their work. * Graphs go up and to the right.

Cons: - Being a startup, prioritization is important and does mean that we often go for the "good enough" solution rather than the full solution (often the most satisfying one). - Having lots of important work means fewer chances to have moments of creativity that often come with idle times and a bit of boredom.

Pros: * Pay is very competitive * Feels like company is on the cutting edge to stay profitable and competitive as a business * Reasonable work culture and supportive management. Even with the issues listed in cons, have had conversations w/ reporting chain about personal needs and values without retaliation.

Cons: * Can be intense. Product teams expect long hours leading up to launches, and those who worked long hours are then praised for it. Many managers and leaders are obviously workaholics which sets a tone, even if they claim it's not expected of others. * Execs micro-manage projects they're interested in. Leads to high quality bar but a lot of last-minute rework, and lower autonomy for those teams.

Pros: Good time I had to work over there

Cons: Very Hard deadlines & hiring freeze
