Pros
  • Loved my team and my manager
  • RSUs and stock options amounted to something due to the IPO
  • Compensation is decent
Cons
  • CTO is non technical but makes a lot of big technical decisions. No one dares to argue with him. He has a few minions on the eng team now who are basically being yes-men.
  • EMs and directors are overruled in decision making. We have lost so many good leaders in the past year as a result. They were the most unhappy lot.
  • Both founders are so hard to work with. PM and designer on my team feel like they don't have any autonomy.
