Pros
  • Everyone here is competent and teaches me a ton.
  • Very meaningful equity package, so if the company does well, so do I.
  • Thoughtful, pragmatic leadership that actively solicits and listens to feedback.
  • Rapid iteration speed and continuous deployment.
  • Super comfortable office space and good food.
  • My manager gives me a lot of input as far as which projects I want to work on.
  • I've been given a lot of ownership of projects. Just a year and a half after starting, I've already been given a lot of autonomy and the opportunity to lead projects.
  • Growth is consistently great, and we're on our way to being a profitable company once we start running ads.
  • Management is supportive of work/life balance. I've never been pressured to work more than 40-hour weeks.
Cons
  • No 401k matching yet. In Quora's defense, virtually no pre-revenue companies do this.
