Pros: Very open, inclusive, Google-like culture. Management is listening and trying hard to remove obstacles. Fun challenging projects, mostly Java, C/C++, Golang, and some Python. Modern tech: Kubernetes, AWS, hybrid cloud, etc. Hard interviews mean smart people all around. Above market compensation in Prague. Great stock and bonus plans. Incredible atmosphere in Prague specifically. Potential for further growth. Pure is heading to be one of the big players. It's cool to be part of it. In my opinion, currently at the sweet spot in the company's evolution. Out of the startup pains, most necessary and meaningful processes are in place, so no chaos. At the same time, it is still a low-friction culture and it is by no means an ossified corporation yet.

Cons: Prague is independent a lot, but HQ in the US still means late meetings. Challenging interviews. This is actually a good thing if you want to work with top talent. If you prefer to be the smartest person in the room, this is not your room. Quarterly plannings are a bit of a pain. That is one place where the process could still be improved. Initially, Prague was struggling a bit to define clear project ownership. However, this seems resolved now and I don't feel that pain any longer.

Pros: Solving challenging technical problems (e.g., concurrency, networking, high availability). A strong testing mindset. High-quality C++. Strong command of agile development. Talented engineers.

Cons: Often using old/deprecated software. Quality of code, except C++, is pretty poor. Code duplicity and tech debt. Unreasonable work policies.

Pros: Pure is a great company to work for. The company offers products that are shaping the industry. It also has very smart and clever coworkers with great team spirit.

Cons: Pure is changing from a small-mid to a mid-big company, and it depends on how the transition will be handled in the future.
