Work-life balance is the golden handcuffs
Solutions Architect • Current Employee
August 2, 2023
Pros: Completely async organization. You work when you need to. Results are the only thing that matter. I truly believe it is as close as it will get to a meritocratic organization. Focus Fridays with no meetings pretty much means it's a 4-day work week. I'd say probably closer to a 4.5-day work week. Unlimited PTO without question. Within my first year, I took 2.5 months off, and my manager told me to take more.
Cons: If you're not from a developer background or not technical generally, you have a super rough time onboarding and getting up to speed. Async work styles benefit some individuals more than others.
