• Looks like the business is good, so things are moving towards an IPO.
• Company has quite a few "wellness days" over the year, i.e., extra holidays (likely to somewhat compensate for the items listed in the Cons section).
• The CEO seems to maintain a culture of internal transparency, so you get informed about the company's successes or shortcomings.

Engineering is a total mess:

• Forget about work-life balance, as you will be pinged over Slack around the clock. People are expecting you to take meetings at like 9 pm to accommodate other time zones.
• Leadership cares about nothing but how Jira tickets flow. It is more important to make sure your tickets look good than to actually do work.
• Priorities are changing every 5 minutes.
• Unless you take time out of your nights and weekends, it is impossible to get anything done due to distractions and changing priorities.
• Insane inefficiencies are seriously affecting the entire engineering team, coming from homegrown deployment tools that are outdated and way under-documented. The collective wasted time on these is incredible, yet the leadership does not prioritize replacing them.

The company is around the globe and in multiple time zones. Build up a communication culture that would respect people's working hours.

Ask engineering about the inefficiencies they are facing (some are huge) and prioritize addressing them.
