Pros
  • Fantastic colleagues and interesting conversations
  • Always feel like I'm learning something
  • Ability to 'forge your own adventure' with no boundaries to what you can and cannot work on
  • Modern tech-stack; writing Rust is a dream
  • Huge growth opportunities
  • EU-centric, so sensible working hours and no expectation to work overtime; people work hard because they believe in the company.
Cons
  • Classic start-up teething pains. We're a small company with big ambitions, and it's easy to forget that we're only ~200 people, not 2000.
  • Lots of growth to do breaking out of the startup mindset, still building a solid foundation (but we're only 2 years old!)
Advice to Management

Keep on being transparent; it's a great trait to have at this early stage, and generates huge amounts of goodwill with the rest of the company.
